About Highcliffe St Mark Primary School

“Learning for Life; Respect for all”
Highcliffe St Mark C of E Primary School is situated in a quiet and popular residential area in the coastal location of Highcliffe in the borough of Christchurch. We have strong links within our community and as a church school we have good connections with St Mark’s Church supporting and celebrating key events throughout the year.
Highcliffe St Mark C of E Primary School is a three form entry school and presently there are 608 children on roll. All of our staff work together as a very supportive team who are continually striving for high standards of education for our children.
The school is housed in two separate buildings on a large site. We are fortunate to have additional learning spaces such as a music and drama room, wildlife area and cookery room. Our extensive school grounds benefit from a small, all
weather sports pitch, a good sized playing field, excellent wildlife and forest schools areas and a heated open air swimming
pool.
We provide wrap around care by offering breakfast and after school clubs as well as Holiday Club during school holiday periods. We also have a number of externally run clubs after school.
We have good relationships and working partnerships with our main feeder pre-schools and Highcliffe School. We also have close links within The Christchurch Learning Partnership.
Our children have many opportunities to contribute to decision making in our school and to make a difference both in their local community and on a global scale. As a Church of England Foundation School we respect all individuals in a secure and caring environment based on our core Christian Values of Courage, Compassion and Respect. We hold a bronze
United Against Bullying Award and we are particularly proud of our children’s passion for the environment led by the Eco Action group and of our Green Flag status. We have achieved bronze Global Neighbours level through Christian Aid. We have also been awarded the Platinum Gold School Games Mark award for commitment, engagement and delivery of
competitive school sport and the Music Mark for our varied and exciting musical opportunities within and beyond the curriculum.
