We aspire to be the best in all we do and constantly develop social skills and courteous behaviour. We expect the highest standards from each member of our school community as we support each other in our day-to-day learning.
We can also offer single year groups across the school and larger than average facilities and are always looking at ways to develop our school, both inside and out, to enhance and support your child in their learning and enjoyment.
We benefit from strong links with the local Church and with our local community. Have a look at our Class Pages and our links to the local area to find out more.
Parental interest and support has a huge impact on a child’s education and we actively encourage all parents and carers to contribute wherever possible to their child’s time in school and at home.
