Welcome to Charmouth Primary School. We are uniquely situated almost on the beach on the beautiful Jurassic Coast. We aim for our curriculum to inspire as well as take advantage of our beautiful location to ensure our children are able to thrive personally, socially and academically. Our website can only give a small picture of our school, so we welcome visits – this is the best way to really feel what we are all about.
