We are a very small Primary School in the Yorkshire dales - one of the very last remaining traditional village schools serving a small local population in the village of Clapham, North Yorkshire. We are lucky to live in such a beautiful place on the edge of Ingleborough hill in a place steeped in history. But the reality is different. Recent budget cuts combined with the increased running costs of the school have made finances tight. Our priority is always making sure that our children get the best possible education and a significant amount of our budget goes towards the cost of employing teachers (we have two classes of children and a nursery). Because of this, we find it a stretch to provide good quality resources that will really make a difference. for the children who live in isolated hamlets and villages close by.

We are raising money for our school fund, which will help towards the cost of providing learning resources and outdoor equipment for our children. If you are passionate about education, the local area and wish to help - then thank you!
