Education & Training
Set in the thriving market town of Castle Cary in the heart of the Somerset countryside, we are an important part of the local community and we pride ourselves on the friendly and welcoming atmosphere in our school, where our pupils feel valued and safe.
Welcome to Ansford Academy, where education is about everyone achieving his or her best, while developing individual character and personality. We are a mixed comprehensive school consisting of 600 students.
Maiden Beech Academy is for children between the ages of 9-13, and serves the town of Crewkerne and the surrounding communities.
Welcome to Chard School a beautiful, friendly independent school in the heart of Somerset. Chard is in many ways a traditional prep school but it also has a unique atmosphere, partly due to the fact that our children learn in a beautiful building rich in historical background, but also the high staff to pupil ratio means we bring out the best in every child.
Our aim is to support our students in fulfilling their potential both academically and socially. We believe that this is achieved by setting high standards of teaching, learning and care. We hope that this comes across through browsing this website, but you are always very welcome to arrange to visit us to see for yourself.
Conveniently located in the heart of Shepton Mallet in Somerset, First Steps Childcare Limited offers educational nursery and pre-school care for your child in a safe, loving and caring environment.
We provide a high quality of education and an environment that supports, nurtures and challenges students to fulfil their potential. We ensure students are prepared with the skills, morals and qualifications to allow them to progress to further education and to become valued members of the community. We are deeply proud that our students have made excellent progress over many years in their GCSE examinations; regularly above that of other local secondary schools.
We are a learning community in which all young people are supported and encouraged to achieve their potential.
