Welcome to the website of Whatfield CEVCP School. We are a Church of England School which aims for learning experiences to be stimulating and awe inspiring with Christian Values at their Heart. Our curriculum is designed with this at the heart of it. We serve our local community and beyond, committed to helping all pupils achieve their best whatever their starting points. We are a small school where all staff know every pupil and encourage them to thrive. We believe that our small school is 'like a small mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds on earth. Yet when planted, it grows and becomes the largest of all garden plants' (Mark 4:30 NIV)
The school is very well supported by governors and parents as well as the local community. We believe the stronger these partnerships are the more your children can thrive. We have a highly active Friends of Whatfield School (FOWs). We are federated with Bildeston Primary School and have strong links with other local primary schools and Hadleigh High School.
The school is committed to safeguarding, if you have any concerns about a child in school please contact the school's Designated Safeguarding lead, Mrs Julia Shaw or an Alternative Designated Safeguarding lead, Mrs Charlotte Clarke or Miss Harriet Young. The safeguarding governor is Mrs Jessica Searle.
The website should give you an insight into our school, if you would like paper copies please contact us through the school office. We welcome visits from you and your children, just contact the school office through the website or by telephone to make an appointment.
I look forward to welcoming you and your child(ren) into school.
