Clough Primary School & Nursery Unit

About Us

• Clough Primary School and Nursery Unit is situated in the village of Clough close to Ballymena, just off the A26 at Glarryford.    

• We are proud of our high standards in school work, school uniform and attendance. Our school has the tradition of operating as a large family unit.   

• We aim to create a calm and caring environment where each child will be encouraged to fulfil their full intellectual, physical and emotional potential.   

• Our school has an established environment where pupils, parents and carers, teachers, support staff and governors work together to facilitate effective learning.

Thank you for taking time to visit our school website.  I hope that you find it enjoyable but also informative. We aim to update it regularly with news of our children and upcoming events.

Clough Primary is a rural school, situated outside Ballymena.  We are small enough for you to experience a warm, family atmosphere, yet big enough to provide our pupils with a breadth of exciting educational experiences that allow each child to fulfil their potential.

There is a lively, interactive atmosphere in all our classrooms and corridors where you will see children and teachers engaged in up to date learning.  We are continually extending our range of resources to allow all our children to explore and engage in learning suited to their unique learning ability from Nursery Class through to our Primary 7 Class.

The staff are dedicated and passionate about teaching and caring for your children as they would their own.  Likewise our non-teaching staff are part of the team who work together to allow each child to maximise their talents yet provide a challenge so that they can confidently overcome their difficulties.  We realise that all children are talented in many different areas not just academic. 

While our website will give you an insight into our school, we always welcome visits from existing, returning and prospective parents to enable you to experience first-hand our caring ethos and child centred approach to education.

A massive thank you to all who  contributed towards our Virtual MacMillan Coffee Morning. 

We raised a fantastic £1450.
