Welcome to Braddock C of E Primary School

We are a small, welcoming Church of England primary school set in the heart of Cornwall. Here, every child is known, valued, and nurtured, not just academically, but as a whole person. We celebrate every talent, foster curiosity, and encourage our children to flourish in all they do.

Our school family works together to create a warm, supportive atmosphere where staff, children, and parents feel part of something special.

Our curriculum is designed to be hands-on, meaningful, and engaging. Children are encouraged to explore, ask questions, think creatively, and learn through real-world experiences both inside and outside the classroom.

As a Church of England School, we support its vision for education which is deeply Christian, with Jesus’ promise of ‘life in all its fullness’ (John 10:10) at its heart.

Safeguarding pupils is our first priority. All our employees and volunteers are vetted and trained to ensure our children are kept safe. Adults and pupils are vigilant and know how to report and record any concerns they may have to senior leaders responsible for safeguarding.

If you are; a parent looking for a school for your child, a teacher looking for a class to teach or a school seeking partnerships with others, we would love to hear from you. Here are our contact details.

Gold Water Smart School Award 2026

We’re very proud to share that we have been awarded the RLSS UK Water Smart Schools Gold Award! This national award recognises our commitment to helping children understand how to enjoy water safely and confidently. Our pupils have taken part in a wide range of learning opportunities, including:

Water safety lessons across the curriculum
Visits and workshops with external organisations
Learning about rivers, canals and local waterways
Assemblies and awareness activities promoting safe choices around water
Opportunities to develop life skills that help keep themselves and others safe

Given our location, we feel it’s especially important for our children to understand the importance of safety near the water. A huge well done to all of our pupils and staff for embracing this important learning. The school’s work helps children develop the knowledge and confidence to stay safe around water as we acknowledge this an essential life skill and we’re incredibly proud that our work has been recognised with Gold Award status.
