There are currently 12 classes in the school, in addition to the ‘Sky Base’ class mentioned above. We have two classes per year group except for Year 1 and Year 3, where there is one class. Every class has a fully qualified teacher and we have extensive Teaching Assistant support throughout the school.

We are committed to excellence. We want the best for all our children and staff, and we hope and expect that everyone will give of their best.
We aim to be a true community school, working in partnership with parents and carers, and encouraging every child to participate actively in the life of the school and the local community.
