About Us

Welcome to Ludlow Church of England School.  As the only secondary school in Ludlow, we are privileged to serve this wonderful town and   local area. We understand that all schools are always on a journey of  improvement, as are the young people in our care.  Our mission is to nurture confident, well-rounded, and responsible young individuals and prepared them to face the challenges of the modern world.

We believe in the concept of family. As members of the Ludlow Church of England School family, we share values, rules, and behaviour that align with those of the wider society. Our core values are Excellence,  Resilience, and Care. These principles are central to achieving success in life, and we strive to instil them in the children under our care.

Thank you for entrusting your children to us. We look forward to watching them grow into the positive adults they are destined to become.

The school community shares a single vision of “Excellence Together”, where staff and students aim to make excellence a habit in all that we do: our teaching and learning, behaviour, and care of each other.  We are ambitious in our aspirations for our students and want them to leave us as confident and articulate young people, able to succeed in an ever-changing world.

Our curriculum aims to develop young people who:

  • achieve well
  • are resilient, confident, safe and responsible
  • feel supported and included
  • secure positive destinations beyond school

We believe that the total educational experience of our students is vitally important to ensure that, upon leaving us, they have the necessary knowledge, skills, attitudes and attributes to succeed in whichever area they wish.  We also take the safety of our community very seriously.  The school aims to help parents and carers understand that the school, like all others, has a duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of all students; we are sure that you will join us in this partnership. 

Thank you for visiting our website, and if it does not answer all of your questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school.
