Our School

Our school originates from the 1870's when the government made education for children between the ages of five and fourteen compulsory in England and Wales. During this time, many hundreds of primary schools were built and were staffed in a variety of ways, often depending on the size of the school and the population of the local area. Our school was originally led by Mr Charles Quarmby, the 'Certified Master' and admitted its first pupils on June 18th,1877. There were 9 children taken in on this first day and Mr Quarmby's eldest son, Frederick, occupies pride of place as the first pupil in the admissions book. The family lived in the school house called 'The Master's House' which is now home to our school library, offices and curriculum kitchen. Within its first year, the school had admitted no fewer than 172 children.

Over the years, the school has changed considerably. Although retaining the original Victorian building, further classrooms have been added and the facilities both indoors and out are very much in keeping with the demands of the 21st century. Parents unfamiliar with the school environment are welcome to make arrangements to have a look around. This can be done by simply phoning us or emailing the school.

Pupil Premium Grant 

All members of staff, including Governors, have a responsibility to meet the needs of all children within the school, be it social, pastoral or academic. At Clough and Risegate, we are committed to making the best use of our Pupil Premium Grant (PPG) to work towards narrowing the attainment gap between vulnerable pupils and their peers. We have a responsibility to report and explain our PPG expenditure to parents annually.

Sports Premium

All schools receive a Sports Premium allocation in order to raise standards in P.E. The health and well-being of our pupils is a priority. Take a look at our Sports Premium allocation page to see how we are spending this money.
