Thank you for your interest in our school! St Hilda’s, Ampleforth CE VC Primary School was judged to be a ‘GOOD’ school at its most recent OFSTED Inspection. The distinctiveness and effectiveness of St Hilda’s, Ampleforth CE VC Primary School as a Church of England school were judged to be ‘GOOD’ at its most recent SIAMS Inspection.
Choosing the best primary school for your child is a really important task for parents. To help with this task our website explains the key things that St. Hilda’s Primary School offers and we hope you will find it useful.
We are a small, rural village school and community nursery, situated in the village of Ampleforth on the edge of the North York Moors National Park. It is a beautiful site with a large playing field, trees, wildlife area and playground. Our accommodation was built in 1965 replacing the Victorian school which is now the Village Hall.
As Headteacher and Governors we are proud that our school provides good opportunities for spiritual, moral, social and cultural education. The teaching staff are dedicated and caring members of their profession. Their commitment to the individual needs of pupils and to the welfare of the school as a whole is especially evident and they are very well supported by the team of non-teaching staff. We work closely in partnership with parents so that, together, we can build a firm foundation for your children to grow and develop to their full potential.
On the 1st April 2015 the school became Federated with Hovingham CEVC Primary School. The head teacher is shared between the two schools, and a single Governing body oversees both schools. We collaborate very closely to provide extra social, educational and sporting opportunities for the children.

The village community recognises St. Hilda’s School as an established, core part of village life; something which we are very proud of.
You are welcome to visit the school and to see for yourself the happy, productive atmosphere, which enables the children to grow in confidence and achieve so well.
