"Leaders and staff foster a welcoming, nurturing culture that enables individuals to flourish. They consistently reflect the Christian vision in daily life, shaping decision-making, relationships and behaviour. This creates a culture of respect, compassion and responsibility in which pupils and adults thrive.”

The school was opened in 1849 and was built by the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire to provide an education for the children of the estate’s workers.
Since then, it has expanded with new classrooms and is now open to all, providing a friendly environment with a committed staff team where children thrive.
Some quotes from our parents:
"Pilsley is a wonderful school.”
“Since joining Pilsley CE Primary school, our son has truly thrived.”
“We cannot recommend Pilsley CE Primary school enough”
