“The Kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard seed planted in a field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but it becomes the largest of plants; it grows into a tree, and birds come and make nests in its branches”.

Our present school site was opened by Bishop Jim in 1994 as the school relocated to Kithill. The school serves the market town of Crewkerne, providing an inclusive education of the highest quality for children between the ages of 4-11. Our school day starts at 8.50am and ends at 3.15pm, offering 31\u00bc hours of learning per week. The children join the school from a variety of preschool establishments in and around the Crewkerne area and usually leave to continue their education at Wadham School.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1885″ alignment=”center”][vc_btn title=”School Prospectus” color=”success” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.st-bartholomews.somerset.sch.uk%2Fdownload%2F385%2Fprospectus%2F7091%2Fprospectus-2023-24|title:Prospectus%202023-24|target:_blank”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1459416622945{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1955″ img_size=”full” onclick=”zoom” css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1592824197200{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”Our Church” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1673516756138{padding-right: 20px !important;}”]We are a Church of England School and are incredibly proud of our strong Christian ethos and the links with St. Bartholomew’s Church in Crewkerne. We worship in the church several times each year to celebrate a number of events such as Harvest, Christmas and Easter. We hold a daily worship in school and are supported by members of the church and diocese who also lead regular worship sessions:[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1885″ alignment=”center”][vc_btn title=”Our Ofsted Report” color=”success” align=”center” link=”url:%20https%3A%2F%2Freports.ofsted.gov.uk%2Fprovider%2F21%2F123750%20|target:_blank”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Our Mission” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1673516819504{padding-right: 20px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
