A Warm Welcome to Stithians School

Welcome to Stithians School, a happy and vibrant community at the heart of our beautiful village.

We are incredibly proud of our school and believe that strong relationships are at the centre of everything we do. By working closely with our children, families, staff and governors, we create a nurturing environment where every child feels valued, encouraged and supported to thrive.

At Stithians, we approach education with curiosity, compassion and creativity. We are passionate about nurturing inquisitive minds, fostering a love of learning and helping children develop the confidence, resilience, empathy and integrity they need to flourish both in school and beyond. We celebrate the joy of everyday learning, seeking moments of awe and wonder while making the most of our extensive grounds and the stunning Cornish countryside that surrounds us.

Our school is currently at an exciting stage in its journey as we prepare to welcome Claire Bridges-Todd as our new Headteacher in November. This new chapter brings fresh opportunities whilst building on the many strengths and successes that make Stithians such a special place to learn and grow.

As Acting Headteacher, I feel privileged to lead such a talented, committed and unique staff team. Together, we are dedicated to providing every child with the very best education and the experiences they need to achieve their full potential.

My philosophy is simple: I want our school to be full of safe and happy children. When children feel secure, valued and excited to come to school each day, they develop the confidence to take risks in their learning, build meaningful relationships and become the very best version of themselves.

Whether you are already part of our school family or are considering joining us, I hope our website gives you a glimpse of the warmth, ambition and sense of belonging that make Stithians School such a wonderful place to be.

Warm regards,

Trevor Manley

Acting Headteacher
