Welcome to St Giles' Primary School
OFSTED RESULTS
We are thrilled to share our recent Ofsted report with you!
Our school is set in the beautiful village of Great Maplestead and retains its original Victorian Character, being sympathetically extended to create modern facilities. The grounds have been enhanced through recent projects meaning that we have lovely outside spaces in which to play and learn.
The children at St. Giles’ are really supportive of one another and are encouraged to be full and active members of the school community. It is this ethos, underpinned by our Christian values that makes our school such a special place – vibrant, musical, creative and successful.
Our school community is a collaboration of children, staff, parents and governors, all working together to create an exciting and challenging learning environment. It is a place where history meets the technological age – our beautiful Victorian building houses a forward thinking and modern learning environment. Our outdoor spaces help us to take our learning beyond the classroom, all of which have been redeveloped over the last two years.
I am always delighted to welcome visitors to St Giles’.

Our School Vision
At St Giles’ and St Andrew’s C of E Primary Schools, we are curious, excited and really love to learn. As a Church school, we believe in serving our community based on the love of God for everyone. We support each other to become robust, independent learners who persevere, have the courage and confidence to be creative, imaginative and care for one another and the community we live in. Our school is inclusive, making every one of us welcome. It sets us suitable learning challenges and responds to our needs, ensuring that we reach our potential and are fulfilled. These are the golden threads that weave through our work and are exemplified by our values –
Respect, Trust, Love and Forgiveness within both schools and beyond.
