VA Primary School
Small enough to know every child, ambitious enough to help them reach for the stars.
Welcome from our Headteacher
A warm welcome to Barnham Broom
At Barnham Broom, we combine the warmth and belonging of a village school with the ambition and opportunities that help every child thrive. We are small enough to know every child. Ambitious enough to help them reach for the stars.
As a small school, we believe every child deserves to be seen, supported, and encouraged to achieve their very best. Guided by our vision of "Reaching for the Stars – Let Your Light Shine – Serving, Believing, Growing", we nurture confident, curious, and compassionate learners.
We hope you enjoy exploring our website and learning more about our wonderful school. If you would like to visit us, please do get in touch — we would love to welcome you. Mrs Heather Benson, Headteacher
