A very warm welcome to our school! We look forward to a year of continued progress where children learn lots of new facts, figures and skills, delivered through our exciting curriculum that is filled with adventure, trips, events and visitors that bring their learning alive!
We feel very fortunate to have such fantastic learning environments, both inside and out. They provide a vibrancy that help to capture children’s imaginations and, along with high quality teaching and learning support, encourages a thirst for learning that results in their progress in all year groups.
‘The climate and feel of the school is overwhelmingly positive.’ (DfE 11/2016)
