Tame a tiger (face a situation that worries them)

Improve their local environment and community

One of our classes is a nursery class that takes children from 2 years old. The school mainly takes children from the west side and the centre of Whitby - but is accessible from all parts of the town.
We pride ourselves on providing a warm and welcoming environment for children and adults alike, and we strive to provide the very best standard of education possible for our children.
The school has a before and after school club (The Ocean Fun Club), offering wraparound care for children from 7.45 until 5.15. This is open to all children including our nursery children. Prices are £2.50 for breakfast and £2.50 per hour after school. Please book a place using the My Child at School app.

We are a beach school and are very committed to learning outside of the classroom. Exploring, motivating, engaging, creating and thinking.

We aim to give every child the best possible start to their education. We work with children from the age of 2 until they transfer to Primary School.

Our children are currently organised into 7 classes & a new Guppies Nursery Class. Our class numbers range from 22 to 32. We pride ourselves on personalised learning.

At West Cliff our aspirational curriculum is designed to recognise and build on children’s prior learning and develop inquisitive, curious, resilient and independent learners who are willing to ‘tame their tigers’.

This week we introduced our new school bus pass for children to use Dorothy at lunchtime. These Y5 girls are our Bus Leaders and have done an incredible job in creating rules and ensuring everyone is safe and respecting the environment. They open up, clean up and close up to ensure we have a calm oasis in the middle of our playground. Thank you girls, look at the joy you have brought to those little faces!!

Year 2 have had an amazing time this week completing their DT projects of designing and making a healthy salad.


Our aspirational curriculum is designed to recognise and build on children’s prior learning and develop inquisitive, curious, resilient and independent learners who are willing to ‘tame their tigers’. Reading and digital literacy are at the heart of our daily learning, opening up new learning opportunities.


Our ever-developing bespoke curriculum will provide our pupils with the opportunity to develop a rich and deep subject knowledge and understand the purpose and value of their learning. Whilst celebrating Whitby’s heritage and locality, we promote opportunities to explore the wider world.


Our school pledges and Beach School status at the core of our curriculum, value all subjects; help our pupils to be ambitious and creative; and prepare them for their future lives.
