Our Federation comprises of two small, rural, primary schools – St Cuthbert’s C of E School and Glasshouses CP school, not far from Harrogate in the beautiful Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that is Nidderdale. All the schools within our Federation have a long history of providing education in the communities they serve, each with its own unique identity.
Each school has gone through many changes since their creation, circa 1880, but one thing has always held true, we exist for our children, who come first, and this is something that we all hold true.
Upper Nidderdale Primary Federation prides itself on providing a nurturing, holistic, and family environment, within which all children flourish and learn the CHAMPS way.
Each of our schools is unique and offers the privilege of small class sizes, and as a federation, every pupil benefits from specialist teachers, joint learning sessions with wider groups of pupils, and learning opportunities beyond the prescribed national curriculum.
