Shebbear Community Primary School was founded in 1877. It is set in the heart of the Devon countryside, in the small rural village of Shebbear.
"Staff are happy, enthusiastic and have fun with the children which means learning becomes embedded."
"We continue to be very pleased and impressed by the education offered to our children; the teachers, assistants and governors/SSSG all work very hard for the children’s benefit."
"I would never worry about my child whilst at Shebbear School."
