South Stoke is a very special village school. Its small size creates a warm, welcoming and nurturing environment where children are known as individuals and where strong relationships between children, staff and families are at the heart of school life.  

Our three school values, Confidence, Compassion and Curiosity, are at the heart of everything we do. We encourage children to have the confidence to try new things, make mistakes and believe in themselves; the compassion to care for others, show kindness and understand different perspectives; and the curiosity to ask questions, explore ideas and develop a lifelong love of learning.
