About Us
Welcome to Lanercost Church of England Primary School
A small, inclusive, and nurturing rural school that offers a distinctive and holistic educational experience rooted in Christian values and community.
Situated in the heart of the countryside, Lanercost School fosters a close-knit community where every child is known, valued, and supported to thrive. We are deeply rooted in Christian values—compassion, perseverance, truthfulness, respect, and hope—which form the moral foundation upon which our school community is built.
Academic Excellence
We promote high standards and encourage every child to reach their full potential through a rich, engaging, and creative curriculum with personalized support.
Character Development
Through worship, service, leadership, and community engagement, we nurture confident, reflective individuals who act with integrity and compassion.
From the earliest stages in our on-site nursery to the final years of primary education, children are supported to grow intellectually, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. Wellbeing is a core priority, with designated staff and services ensuring pupils and families receive the support they need.
