Welcome to Chilton Foliat Primary School website which has been designed to provide both factual information and to give you a feel for the ethos and character of our great school.
Although a significant proportion of the children come from outside Chilton Foliat, it remains a small village, Church of England School. The emphasis is on the development of the whole child; so in addition to strong academic performance, our parents, the staff and Governors take pride in how the children develop personally, socially and spiritually.
We are proud of the excellent behaviour and positive attitudes of the children.
We encourage the children to develop their moral and spiritual depth because this helps them to hold to a course and weather life’s ups and downs, as well as developing life-long learning skills at an early age. We believe this is extremely important because a lack of these skills has been linked to very bright children dropping out of higher education.
None of this happens by accident, and we are fortunate to have a skilled, dedicated and extremely professional team at the school, strongly supported by enthusiastic parents.
Indeed, there are many opportunities for parents to participate in the school; through the ‘Friends’, in the classroom, on trips and, not least, by contributing through involvement on the Governing Body.
If you are a prospective parent, please contact us if you would like any additional information or to arrange a visit.
