Our School

Chew Magna is a fully maintained primary school serving the beautiful village of Chew Magna and the surrounding area.

There has been a school here for the past three centuries and the present buildings have been in use for over 100 years. During this time, various key modernisations and improvements have taken place to ensure that the school is able to deliver an ambitious, forward-looking curriculum in attractive, well -maintained surroundings.

We have made the best use of the space we have to enhance learning. We have a well -used playground and a wonderful school field.

Our school will provide a broad range of opportunities for everyone to flourish within a community that is happy, vibrant and inspiring.
