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.

This year, we’ve continued building a school that truly puts children first. One of our proudest achievements this academic year has been the successful launch of Forest School across the whole school – from Reception to Year 6. This has transformed our outdoor learning, offering every pupil a chance to build resilience, curiosity and a deep connection to nature.

This week, we’re taking a moment to celebrate some outstanding outcomes across school. Our KS2 results are in, and they are a fantastic reflection of the hard work that has taken place not just in Year 6, but right through from Reception upwards. These results show that our pupils are ready to take on the challenges of KS3 with confidence.

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.
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.

Our values make us who we are and help us to stay focused on what we do and how we do it. After consulting our community, we have decided that our love for learning, seeking out new challenges, showing courage when learning is hard and our commitment to kindness is reflected in the values, Brave, Curious and Kind.
