Our website is a reflection of our ethos, our accomplishments, and the unique blend of curiosity, creativity, and community that defines us. Located in Clevedon, North Somerset, UK, we are proud to be a Church of England Primary School with a strong emphasis on personal development and emotional intelligence.

Our Vision & Values

At St Nick's, we believe in the harmonious integration of academic excellence and character development. Our guiding principles are Creating Aspiration, Nurturing Talent, and Instilling values that encourage every pupil to learn and grow. We foster a nurturing environment that promotes self-confidence, resilience, and a love for learning.

Our School Staff

Our talented and dedicated team of educators are resourceful in their approach, responsive to children's social and emotional needs, and committed to the holistic development of each child. They create a spirited and enjoyable learning culture and promote a growth mindset, which empowers pupils to realise their full potential.

Our School as a Church School

Integral to the fabric of our identity is our Church of England foundation that deepens our commitment to promoting a values-based education. We invest in fostering each child's spiritual growth and connection with their community, instilling in them an understanding of compassion, tolerance, and mutual respect.

Friends of St Nicks (PTA)

Our active Parent-Teacher Association collaborates with our staff and parents to provide exciting opportunities that enrich and elevate our pupils' experiences. They play a vital role in organising events, socials, and fundraising endeavours, ensuring that friendships flourish, and the St Nick's community thrives and prospers.

The Curriculum

Our curriculum is grounded in the National Curriculum, the locally agreed Religious Education syllabus, and the Personal, Social and Health Education programme 'Jigsaw'. Our aim is to develop curious, life-long learners who possess the essential tools, attitudes, and a passion for discovery that will enable them to make a positive impact on the world. Our approach entails designing rich and diverse education experiences that ignite their imagination and challenge them, reinforcing key skills and a love of learning for life. We are thoroughly committed to making the learning experience an enjoyable one that promotes independence and creativity and prepares pupils for the wider world and future success.

SEND & Inclusion

At St Nicholas' Chantry CE Primary School, we are committed to providing an all-encompassing, supportive environment for pupils with a diverse range of educational needs. We seek to understand their abilities, beliefs, and sentiments, crafting personalised pathways for learning and growth, and giving them the opportunity to flourish and achieve their personal best.

In consideration of the evolving situation and the importance of containing the spread of COVID-19, we accommodate and support pupils and staff with online learning and remote learning options, along with a variety of systems that encourage the entire school community to unite and work collaboratively.
