Coppice Valley is a unique school - a peaceful oasis of nature, quiet and calm, safely tucked away from the main roads. We are Harrogate's hidden gem, having a large playing field, wildlife area and meadow.
At Coppice Valley, we are known as the school with heart. Our staff work hard to make sure everyone feels cared for, safe and valued. We treat every child as the remarkable individual they are.
Our vision is to create learners for life - children who are enthused with a love for learning. This all begins in the haven of nature we have on our doorstep, here at Coppice Valley.

As we reach the end of a busy 16-week term, I have been reflecting on all we’ve achieved and want to express my thanks to everyone in our school community. This term marks an incredible 44% of the way through our 36-week school year! It is no wonder we are exhausted!

What a magical week we’ve had at Coppice Valley! Our school has been alive with festive spirit as EYFS and KS1 brought the Christmas story to life with their wonderful performances. EYFS delighted us with A Wriggly Nativity, with beautiful singing. Meanwhile, KS1 shone in Whoops-a-Daisy Angel, impressing everyone with their clear speaking, confident delivery of lines, and impressive teamwork.

We love working with our local community, here at Coppice Valley. We welcomed the help and advice of Horticap in helping us to make this amazing community garden. Our local community is welcome to use the growing beds and take food from it, after school hours, at weekends and in the holidays.
At Coppice Valley, we recognise that good mental health is as important as good physical health. Our pupils are taught self-care techniques, including recognising and managing emotions, exercise, relaxation and how to build relationships through a rich and varied curriculum.
Our Before and After School (BAS) care is run by our own Coppice Valley teaching assistants and staff, just for pupils at Coppice Valley School. Having our own staff run our wrap-around care means we can ensure the highest standards and that it functions to the same ethos and values as our school.
