The school is proud of its status as a Church of England Voluntary Controlled school. We have recently undergone a very successful Statutory Inspection of Anglican Schools (SIAS).

The school has close links with St. Leonard’s Church, Shipham. The Priest-in-Charge, Tim Hawkings, is a very familiar and popular visitor in school, leading Collective Worship in school every fortnight and welcoming the children to a service in school at least twice a term. We also end each half-term with a Family Service in the Church.
We hold a Harvest Festival in the Church and also celebrate the Christmas story with a play in church. Children leaving Shipham hold a special celebration service in the summer.
The school also takes part in Diocesan events with the Year Four children making a pilgrimage to Wells Cathedral each year.
Find out more about the local churches on the Shipham Parish Website.
