This provides a solid platform for learning and growing. Very impressed with the leadership from the top right through all staff and team members. • High standards, caring environment and passionate staff • Well organised school with experienced staff • A real sense of community. Great community values - the school has a real family friendly feel about it - a family orientated school. • The size of the school gives lots of opportunities not available in many other primary schools. These include a wide range of sporting and cultural opportunities for all children. • The diverse cultural mix. • Professional approach to teaching, A well articulated vision and the strong commitment to a positive school identity. • Access to a wide range of technology and ICT’s. • Teachers take learning seriously and assess the children so that they can shape their teaching around how the child learns and the areas that they require extra focus on. Our children are encouraged to participate in cultural and sporting activities. • A caring structured and disciplined environment. • An environment of inclusion and participation for everyone. • Family and friends love to come and watch the children in school productions, shows, assemblies, cross country, sports days and see their learning in the classroom.
