Key Stage Two - Chapter House - Primary School Harrogate

Children are encouraged to be more independent in their learning and take a proactive role in asking questions and making new discoveries.

Key Stage Two students at Chapter House learn two languages, take part in weekly Performing Arts lessons and have access to an on-site swimming pool.

Active Lifestyle For An Active Brain

With three sports sessions each week, there is something to engage every child, regardless of their interest or level of ability. Our specialist coaching and curriculum focus on building skill sets rather than on specific individual or team sports. This approach helps every child enjoy learning essential skills like balancing, throwing, and jumping, preparing them for sports coaching at King’s Magna.
