Our aim is to provide an outstanding education that nurtures the potential of every individual, promotes personal growth and prepares students for future success and global citizenship in a changing world.

West Buckland School was founded in 1858 to bring education to rural families and it is these principles of inclusion and social mobility which are at the heart of the West Buckland ethos. We have a strong history of internationalism, attracting students from all over the world. We take pride in our multi-cultural community in which everyone feels like family, with life-long friendships being formed which span the globe. West Buckland strives to help all students to be the best they can be, offering equal rights and opportunities whilst respecting different strengths, abilities and interests.
