About Us

Welcome to St Herbert's School, Keswick.

We are a Church of England school committed to the Christian principles which permeate everything we do. We aim to offer the highest standards of teaching and learning for your children, enriched by a variety of extra-curricular activities, residential visits and creative arts experiences.

Take a look at the video below to join us on a virtual tour of the school, see it in action and meet some of the people who make it a special place!

The video below features our school song, written and performed by staff and pupils, and highlights some of the many ways children learn at St Herbert's. We encourage you to come and experience what a welcoming, happy and exciting place St Herbert's is and invite you and your child to come and meet the staff and children.

We offer, in conjunction with the Children's Centre adjacent to the school, wrap-around-care from 7.45am at the Breakfast Club until 6pm at the Keswick Out of School Club. 

Our staff strives for the very best for every child, and that means for their well being, as well as for their learning. We value academic achievement and the fulfilling of every child's potential and also promise to provide an education which places equal emphasis on the personal and social, spiritual and physical development of every pupil in our care.

We are delighted to offer extra curricular activities, instrumental tuition, creative arts experiences and exciting residential visits. The curriculum is regularly enhanced at every Key Stage by visits to and visitors from the locality and beyond.

Finally, as the only primary and nursery school in Keswick, we take our role seriously, building and maintaining links with the local community in the town and beyond.
