Welcome to Staveley CE Primary School
On behalf of the children, staff and Governors, I would like to welcome you to Staveley CE Primary School.
We are very proud of our village school which stands in beautiful grounds surrounded by hills, fields and trees. We have strong links within the local community and we work closely with St James’ Church situated next door to school.
Our Core Christian Values of Friendship, Respect, Compassion, Thankfulness, Courage and Service are at the heart of everything we do and we are committed to developing a love of learning in all our children.
Our School Vision;
We love to learn. We learn to love, embraces loving one another as Jesus loved us. We strive to recognise our flocks' individual gifts and celebrate these gifts in a caring, loving and Christian environment. We aspire to create a community of hope filled, lifelong learners who are empowered to embrace challenge and can influence positive change in the world.
Our curriculum covers the requirements of the National Curriculum as well as offering our children a wide range of experiences including exciting trips and Residential visits, Outdoor and Adventurous Activity Days, Theme Weeks and the use of our extensive grounds.
Our most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2025 recognised this stating that; "The curriculum is broad, rich and engaging. The school brings the curriculum to life through purposeful experiences linked to pupils’ learning. Staff’s subject knowledge is strong and they present new information to pupils clearly." "The school is ambitious for pupils’ achievement. This extends beyond the curriculum and into all aspects of their development."
We hope the information included on this website gives you a flavour of the special place Staveley CE Primary School is.
If there is anything else you would like to know please do not hesitate to get in touch. If you are a prospective parent we would be happy to take you on a tour, please call the School Office to arrange this.

Headteacher

We love seeing children take what they learn in school and create something outside of school using those skills! This student has taken what he has learnt at sewing club to create a buff and a hair scrunchie at home, using his mum’s sewing machine! A true sewing superstar🧵⭐️
It was lovely to hear Miss Harrison talk about her time at Staveley School and journey to becoming a teacher. A clear message of how hard work and dedication can help you fulfil your dreams. #nationalcareersweek #staveleyschoolalumni If you are a past pupil and would like to join our alumni please get in touch
Another fantastic week at sewing club! We’re becoming confident at using the sewing machines now and how to rethread it if it comes loose. Our patchwork cushion covers are starting to come together now and we’re ready to start sewing the back on. Well done everyone 👏🧵🪡
