As a church school, we promote a vision of “life in all its fullness” (John 10:10). This means we are dedicated to supporting our students to become well rounded individuals, through an educational journey that encourages curiosity and builds resilience; nurturing their spiritual, emotional, physical and mental well being.

In the school’s most recent Ofsted monitoring visit inspector’s noted ‘there is a harmonious environment in lessons and around the school.’

Having supported Pyrland School since March 2025, Pyrland joined the Midsomer Norton Schools Partnership in February 2026. This is a Trust with primary, secondary and special schools based across the South West of England and is often described as the ‘market leader’ in the South West with an exceptional record for providing high quality educational provision to all of its students.
