It is a privilege to be the Headteacher of our friendly village school, situated in the beautiful Kent Downs near Canterbury. We are proud of our strong Christian ethos, our close links with St John’s Church and our place at the heart of the local community.

At Barham, we know, nurture and value every child. Our values of being kind, confident and curious are at the heart of school life. We provide a warm and supportive environment where children feel safe, happy and encouraged to become enthusiastic, independent learners.

Our broad and creative curriculum enables children to explore their interests, develop their unique gifts and talents, and achieve their personal best. Alongside academic learning, children enjoy a wide range of opportunities through music, sport, art, drama, dance, outdoor learning and play. We are also fortunate to have extensive grounds, Outdoor Play and Learning (OPAL), Forest School and our own swimming pool.

Choosing the right school for your child is an important decision. We warmly invite you to visit us, meet our staff and children, and experience our wonderful school community for yourself.

If you would like further information or would like to arrange a visit, please contact the school office on 01227 831312. We would be delighted to welcome you.

Mrs Jo Duhig
