Welcome to Ambleside C of E Primary School

On behalf of the children, staff and governors of Ambleside C of E Primary School, I would like to welcome you to our website. We hope it gives you an insight into life at our wonderful school.

Ambleside C of E Primary School sits in an enviable position in the centre of Ambleside with all that this beautiful place has to offer right on our doorstep. We are also fortunate to have a spacious school building and fantastic grounds; which include a large playing field and woodland, school garden, Forest Schools areas and private outdoor areas for all of our classes. Every part of our fantastic school environment is used for learning!

Our school motto is ‘Life in all its fullness’. This statement reflects the way that we approach things here at Ambleside C of E Primary. We believe that the children in our care should thrive in all areas of their lives: their academic growth, their emotional growth, their health and in the positive relationships they build with the people in their lives. With this in mind, giving our children the opportunity to fully explore their interests and talents is given high importance within the activities we offer here, whether that be through scientific experiments, design and technology, climbing mountains, learning a musical instrument, performing on stage or doing their bit to protect our planet. It’s all here in our wonderful school.

Everyone is made welcome at our school and our highly skilled and dedicated staff share a commitment to giving every child in our care the best possible start in life regardless of any obstacles they may face.  We work closely with families and our professional partners to ensure that our children receive the best possible care and support, enabling them to be the best that they can be.

We’re really proud of our school and we hope you enjoy exploring everything that we do. Beyond our website, we also have dedicated school Facebook and Instagram accounts with regular updates about life in school. 

If you would like more information about our school, or are a prospective parent and would like to book a tour, please contact us via the school office and we will be happy to help you.
