At John Clare, we take care….

As a local, rural school we are a proud to offer a caring, individualised learning environment, in which each and every child feels safe, valued and happy. This atmosphere gives our children the best chance of reaching their full potential and remaining positively engaged in learning. Our school environment enables the staff to really know and nurture our pupils, and to take a genuine interest in their unique backgrounds, skills and interests. We aim to provide every child with experiences and learning opportunities that inspire, excite and challenge them, and that help to prepare them for their bright futures ahead.

What is it like working at John Clare?

"Joining John Clare was like joining a family. The school nurtures the children to help them achieve their best and cares about the well-being of every single child. The Headteacher knows each and every child, not only by their first name but by their personalities and characteristics. The children know all the staff and walking around the school you can sense the friendly atmosphere. I would highly recommend joining the John Clare team!”
