A very warm welcome to Combe Martin School

We are very lucky at Combe Martin as our school is situated in a fantastic location where the Exmoor National Park and the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty meet. We use our unique position to create a learning environment that values the natural world alongside subject mastery and fostering respect for understanding of our wider world.

At Combe Martin we aim for every child to be a successful part of a safe, happy, caring community of learners. We want to ensure all individuals regardless of their race, gender or disability to acquire the skills and knowledge needed to achieve their full potential in a rapidly changing world. We want children to achieve this while we encourage an enjoyment of life-long learning, promote a healthy lifestyle, through a curriculum which is relevant, stimulating, broad, balanced, innovative and creative. Our settings also aim to foster positive parental and community involvement for the good of all.

Combe Martin Primary is a rapidly changing school and we are very excited to have the responsibility of educating the children of Combe Martin whilst sharing our experiences with our recently formed Multi Academy Trust schools. Through a shared responsibility across our many settings we bring a professional, creative and caring partnership focussed on the needs of our children and communities.

Important Safeguarding Notice: Children’s “Spy” BooksWe want to make you aware of a recent issue affecting some popular children’s books by Andrew Cope, including the Spy Dogs, Spy Cats, and Spy Pups series.Some editions of these books include a printed web address at the back. This link used to go to the author’s website, but the domain is no longer under his control. It has since been taken over by another party and now leads to inappropriate adult content.The publisher, Puffin, has paused sales and distribution of the books and is working with schools, libraries, and retailers to remove copies from circulation. They have stressed that the website has no connection to the author or publisher.What this means for you:If your child has any Spy Dog, Spy Cat or Spy Pups books at home, please check the back for website links and make sure they do not try to visit the site.It is safe for children to continue reading the stories themselves — the concern is only with the outdated link.We recommend talking with your child about the importance of not following web addresses in books without checking with an adult first. ...

KS2 had a visit today from the wonderful author and actor Joseph Elliott. He spoke to the children about his books and his acting on Swashbuckle on CBeebies. He showed them a film on how his books are printed, read an excerpt from his book and answered some of the questions the children had. Appledore Book Festival, who organise this wonderful annual event, also gifted each child in KS2 their own signed copy of his latest book. Our thanks go to them and our PTFA for funding the visit. Joseph was such an inspiration 🤩 ... See MoreSee Less
