Welcome to Sutton Courtenay CofE Primary School, a successful, inclusive primary school nestled in the heart of the idyllic Sutton Courtenay village.

At Sutton Courtenay, we want our children to build lasting memories, thrive in life, and grow into compassionate, confident individuals.  We pride ourselves on our inclusive ethos, and understanding of each individual. Through this, we seek to ensure that every child that goes through our school can meet, or exceed, their potential by the time they move onto their next stages in life.

Everything we do is underpinned by our research-based curriculum and pedagogical principles. Each subject has been designed with a clear purpose and has a carefully planned progression from Reception through to Year 6.

We have high expectations of our children, and encourage them to work hard and to celebrate their achievements.

We believe in educating the whole child, providing a range of academic and cultural experiences and have a strong focus on Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE), which enables children to develop resilience and supports their wellbeing.

Everyone at Sutton Courtenay CofE Primary School views themselves as a life-long learner and we have a wonderful staff team who are always looking to develop their skills and knowledge in order to deliver the best possible education for our children. We are extremely proud of our school and, together, we know that we can provide our children with the world-class education that they deserve.

I warmly invite you to visit our school and see for yourself what makes Sutton Courtenay CofE Primary School such a special place.

If we do our jobs well, the children of Sutton Courtenay will grow into confident, compassionate leaders—ready to shape the future with knowledge, integrity, and ambition.
