As a Church of England voluntary controlled primary school, Great Waltham C of E Primary is committed to providing an education rooted in our Christian vision and values. In January 2025, we were delighted to welcome the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS) team to our school.
