St Mawes Primary School
St.Mawes prides itself on its nurturing atmosphere and strong support for its families.
We believe that every child is entitled to a rich and inspiring education that will nurture them as well-rounded individuals with the confidence, the ability, and the desire to make the world a better place.
Our pupils are fortunate to be immersed in a stunning coastal environment and the school is well resourced for science and technology with excellent access to a wide range of equipment. The outdoor spaces include a wildlife area, fire pit, sports field, two playgrounds and agility trail.
St Mawes School is part of the Aspire Academy Trust, a multi-academy trust of 31 primary schools in Cornwall who have joined together in a unique and exciting partnership that will ensure better provision, richer resources and higher standards for our pupils.
