We are a small rural school situated between Boroughbridge and Thirsk with close links to the A1. We are proud that Ofsted recognised that pupils thrive at our exceptional school and we are proud of all of our achievements. We have been rated Outstanding by Ofsted in 2015 and we retained that grading again in 2023. We have places available and we look forward to welcoming you and your child, don’t hesitate to call us for more information.


We are a local community school run by North Yorkshire and welcome children from the ages of 3 – 11 years old from our surrounding areas as well as the military base on the airfield. We are proud of our diversity and the richness it brings to our school.

We offer a wide range of planned high-quality opportunities for pupils to engage in beyond the school curriculum.
