DISCOVERING, LEARNING, BELIEVING TOGETHER
Discovering, Learning, Believing Together
At High Ham we encourage everyone to flourish; believing in themselves and others, growing in wisdom and knowledge, discovering the joy of learning, the comfort of friendship and the wonder of God’s world.
JOHN 15.5-17
“I am the true vine, my father is the gardener, and you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit…
“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends and I have called you friends…You did not choose me, but I chose you so that you might bear much fruit—fruit that will last—This is my command: Love one another.

Statutory Inspection for Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS)
We are a Church of England Primary School which means we have a SIAMS (Statutory Inspection for Anglican and Methodist Schools) inspection every five years. Please click to read our latest SIAMS report.
High Ham is a school with Christian love at its core. Lives are transformed by the work of this school.
High Ham is a happy, caring, inclusive school where pupils and adults flourish. The strong Christian vision is a living reality for members of the school community. Leaders, including governors, passionately ensure that the vision guides decision making and everyday practice, responding to the needs of its whole community. Pupils and adults are warmly welcomed to High Ham in the belief that everyone should receive love as an expression of God’s love. A powerful sense of togetherness, value and nurture runs through the school.
The school is often involved in services held at St. Andrew’s Church, High Ham, and we work with the local church community to maximise these opportunities.
We hold regular school services in St. Andrew’s Church, High Ham, and all are welcome to attend these.
Our SIAMS team of governors monitor the progress towards the objectives of the SIAMS framework, reporting back to the Full Governance Board.
These are our six core values.
