About Us

There has been a school in existence in Knowle for hundreds of years and a Christian-based education has always been at the very heart of this thriving community-minded village. The oldest known school in the village was attached to the Chantry of the Church and this heritage and our Christian values and beliefs underpin every aspect of school life.

In 2013, Knowle CE Primary School became an academy and in doing so secured both creative and financial independence. We are now well-placed to continue in our mission to provide an outstanding education for all our pupils, as acknowledged by OFSTED in 2012.

Our aim is to prepare our pupils for their future. The exemplary learning journey they experience not only equips them for the next stage in their education, but also ensures that they are confident, skilled, knowledgeable, caring individuals ready to impact on, influence and shape the world they live in.

Our track record for achieving the highest academic standards and our genuine belief that the journey is, in many ways, more important than the destination are the twin drivers for our ever evolving and improving curriculum. We aim to teach our pupils the full range of academic and life skills they will require within the context of exciting, challenging ‘real-life’ experiences and opportunities for learning.
