Cleeve School offers consistently outstanding teaching and an innovative and highly personalised curriculum, where literacy and numeracy skills are secured as firm bedrocks.

The School provides a safe and stimulating environment, where mutual respect threads through the celebrated ethos of care, support and guidance. In preparing students for the world beyond school, we firmly believe in high standards of dress and attitude, so that good manners, tolerance and understanding underpin everything we do. Tradition is important ~ and we hold on to our traditions and high expectations, whilst also thoroughly embracing innovation and a 21st century approach to learning.
The School has a well-defined vision for the period of this catering contract: ‘Our Students and staff see our catering as first rate and as a key part of the day’s offer’ https://www.cleeveschool.net/3-5-Year-Strategy-2022/doc/index.html
