Uffculme is a completely comprehensive school offering high quality educational opportunities to students of all abilities and aptitudes. Attainment is outstanding but it is not just about results. We aim to produce young people fit for the demands of a complex, global society. We have a proud tradition in outdoor education, musical, dramatic and sporting enrichment and value community service alongside high achievement.

In 2010 Uffculme converted to become one of the first new style Academies. We believe this will allow us greater freedoms, more flexibility and enhanced resources to enable us to continue to develop, improve and aim even higher for every one of our students.

Uffculme is a happy school where students and teachers enjoy working together. We have a strong ethos based on core values of respect, tolerance and courtesy. We set high standards of behaviour and actively promote self discipline, self respect, resilience and responsibility. Through these values our young people gain the confidence to take their place in society and develop the skills and attitudes to enable them to succeed in their chosen paths. On 1st July 2013, Uffculme Primary School joined the Uffculme Academy Trust effectively creating an ‘all-through’ School.

We want to be a school where:

• New experiences and opportunities are shared and memories are created
• Young people have high self-esteem and confidence in their abilities
• Lively and enquiring minds are inspired to develop and achieve
• Everyone is included and everyone matters
• Success is recognised and celebrated
• It's cool to succeed

The Blackdown Education Partnership is a multi-academy trust (MAT) working across Devon and Somerset. It was born of a merger between two established MATs: The Castle Partnership Trust and Uffculme Academy Trust and currently looks after a family of 12 schools: 6 primary and 6 secondary and 4 nurseries.

Blackdown Education Partnership is, therefore, a single organisation established to deliver the education and to safeguard the wellbeing of every child in our Trust. The Trust seeks to ensure that high quality collaboration and system leadership continue to improve the education in our schools. We are responsible for the good governance of the schools within our Trust and are accountable for the performance of each school. We work with an exceptional team of leaders, teachers and support staff whose combined efforts deliver on our promise to believe in every child.
