From the St Clement and St James CofE Primary School
A Church of England institution, St. Clement and St. James. Being a Christian school plays a significant role in who we are and shapes our vision, beliefs, and daily interactions. It was founded (originally as two separate schools) in the 1860s to serve the poor communities around the two school buildings, and we remain committed to serving our local children. The school includes many children of other faiths or no faith, and it is very important to us that all feel welcome and included in the St Clement and St James family. We support education in its broadest sense. The growth of children's spiritual, social, and emotional lives is just as important to us as their academic accomplishment. We are pleased to play a vital role in the neighbourhood and in the community as a whole. We serve five parishes (St Clement and St James, St Helen's, All Saints, St Peter's, St John's) and have especially strong links with St Clement and St James. We also collaborate with the Rugby Portobello Club, the Clement James Centre, and Latimer Christian Fellowship.
