At St James’ Academy our aim is to provide high quality education for all pupils within a learning environment that fosters Christian values and beliefs, and is safe, caring, purposeful and stimulating for all pupils. At the end of their primary education pupils leave understanding how they can keep themselves safe and healthy and are confident that they can achieve and fulfil their potential. They are well prepared for future opportunities, responsibilities and experiences, and are able to contribute positively to their local community.

We have a great team of staff and governors here and we are all very proud of our school, the children and their achievements. Each and every member of staff and governor has an important part to play and is here because they want to make a difference.

We are committed to providing a rich, broad and balanced curriculum that is inclusive, challenging and promotes a love of learning.

We aim for all to have the confidence to succeed and realise their full potential in all aspects of their lives by developing:-

  • an understanding of faith and diversity
  • aspirations and motivation for future success
  • the ability to make informed choices, manage risks and to cope with change and adversity
  • the ability to form worthwhile relationships based on respect for themselves and others at home, school and in the community.

By offering inspirational teaching and a wide range of extra-curricular activities, we strive to ensure that the children are safe, happy and given every chance to flourish in all aspects of their lives.

Working closely with and supporting the local community is of great importance to us all at St James’. We are a church school and Christian Values lie at the heart of what we do. We are all role models and respect for others is a fundamental life skill. We are supplying our children with skills for life.
