"Pupils are happy to attend school. They behave very well and are respectful of adults and each other. Pupils enjoy learning and spending time with their friends. They model the school’s ‘Clifton Way’ values, including teamwork and perseverance in all they do." OFSTED 2023

Welcome to our school!

Hello and welcome to our school website. At Clifton-upon-Teme Primary School, we are proud to work in a place where curiosity, understanding, teamwork, perseverance, and self-awareness are at the core of our values.

Situated in the heart of the beautiful Teme Valley, our small and friendly school is dedicated to providing each child with the very best start in their educational journey. We inspire young minds by offering experiences that open doors to possible futures, nurturing every child's unique potential.

Our ethos is built on a nurturing and caring environment that encourages each child to grow as an individual. We pride ourselves on delivering creative learning experiences that challenge, engage, and enthuse our pupils. As a small village school, we foster a personal connection with every child, creating a real family atmosphere.

Our dedicated and committed staff work tirelessly to ensure children thrive and flourish—academically, socially, emotionally, physically, and creatively. We believe in cultivating a culture where pupils can explore their place in the world, forge positive and rewarding relationships, and develop resilience and a strong sense of self-worth.

At Clifton-upon-Teme, our students embody 'The Clifton Way,' demonstrating our core values in their daily lives. We understand our vital role in shaping young minds, preparing them not only for the next phase of their education but also to become confident, ethical, and caring adults who will contribute positively to society.

We hold ourselves to high expectations and are proud of the exacting standards we achieve. If you are looking for a place for your child to thrive, we invite you to visit us and experience firsthand what makes Clifton-upon-Teme Primary School so special. We would be thrilled to welcome you!

With very best wishes,

Miss Francesca Dancer,

Headteacher
