Curbar Primary School

About Curbar Primary School

Curbar Primary School is a small state primary in the Derbyshire Dales, part of the Derbyshire local authority, where it sits 9th out of 35 primary schools in the area. That puts it comfortably in the top quarter of its local peers, though it trails the three top-ranked schools in the district — Redhill Primary School, Wessington Primary School, and Longford CofE Primary School — all of which achieved a perfect ranking score of 100. With just 71 pupils on roll against a capacity of 74, Curbar is a genuinely intimate setting, and its headteacher Simon Beahan leads a school that has held a Good rating from Ofsted since its most recent graded inspection in November 2023. The school’s early years provision and behaviour and attitudes were both judged Outstanding in that inspection, while leadership and management, quality of education, and personal development all came in as Good. It’s a non-religious, mixed primary for children aged 4 to 11, with no nursery or sixth form.
