Burlescombe Primary School is situated in rural Devon in the village of Burlescombe, near Tiverton. We aim to give all learners the opportunity to grow by empowering children to be fair and open-minded, reflective learners. We have high aspirations for our children and focus on standards with a rigorous approach to all subjects, as well as offering a broad and balanced curriculum through engagement with the arts, PE, sport and numerous enrichment opportunities. We encourage pupils to enjoy their learning, achieve high standards, become resilient individuals and develop positive character virtues.

This is a wonderful opportunity to develop your career by making your mark within this friendly and inspiring Trust, whilst also equipping children with the future-ready skills they will need to become Global Citizens of the future.
