Within the West Exmoor Federation, we are proud to celebrate the fact that all three of our schools are deemed to be good, with some outstanding features, by both Ofsted and HMI.  This is further endorsed at Lynton and Parracombe, our two Church Schools, by the Statutory Inspection of Anglican Schools.
