"Let Your Light Shine"

Welcome to Welshampton Church of England Primary School

Welcome to Welshampton—a small school with a big heart, where every child is known, nurtured, and inspired to “Let Your Light Shine.”

Nestled in the beautiful Shropshire countryside, our school is just a short drive from Ellesmere and Whitchurch, making it easily accessible to families across the local area. We are proud to be a close-knit, inclusive community rooted in Christian values, where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn.

At Welshampton, we believe that education is about far more than academic success. It’s about helping children grow into confident, compassionate individuals who are curious about the world and ready to make a positive difference. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to create a learning environment that is rich in opportunity, creativity, and care.

We are delighted to share that Welshampton has recently been named one of the Top 10 Primary Schools in Shropshire by The Telegraph. This recognition reflects the high standards we set, the joyful learning that takes place every day, and the strong relationships we build with families and the wider community.

Our curriculum is broad, balanced, and engaging—designed to spark curiosity and develop a lifelong love of learning. Whether it’s exploring nature in our outdoor spaces, diving into books in our cosy reading corners, or taking part in exciting school trips, every child is encouraged to discover their strengths and shine brightly.

We invite you to explore our website to learn more about our ethos, our achievements, and the many ways we support children to thrive. Welshampton is a truly special place to learn and grow—and we’d love to welcome you into our school family.
