Branscombe C of E School is a small village school catering for the needs of children between the ages of four and eleven. It is set in wonderful countryside, close to the sea. The immediate environment is in itself a rich resource for learning. The original school building dates from 1878 and has been thoughtfully maintained and developed over the years.

We have two classes with access to three very well equipped classrooms. In addition, we have an ICT suite and an activity room for small group work. A gallery area has recently been transformed into a well stocked library. The Foundation/KS1 classroom has a conservatory for role play and practical activities and their own secure early years play area.

Our school is a welcoming and happy place where children can learn in a secure and stimulating environment. Our values are based upon a Christian ethos focusing on trust, respect and openness. We set high standards for teaching and learning and we seek to help children to develop lively and enquiring minds. We want them to be able to make reasoned judgements and to apply themselves to the acquisition of knowledge and skills relevant to life in a rapidly changing world. We encourage our children to develop an understanding of this world through the experience of a broad and balanced curriculum.

We try to show a caring attitude in everything we do and hope to instil in children sound spiritual and moral values with respect and tolerance for all. We have strong links with our Parish church and make a major contribution to three services during the year.
