Leaders and governors are keen to develop the ‘whole child’’.

At Finham, children receive a holistic education, that nurtures their unique skills and talents.  Although children will develop at different rates, they all deserve a bespoke, values led, inclusive education and an excellent start in life. We strive for the highest standards. This is achieved by challenging, whilst supporting and nurturing each and every child.  We cultivate creativity and critical thinking to develop intrinsically motivated learners with high aspirations for their futures. 

What we can offer:

 Being part of something exciting for the City of Coventry
