One Childhood - One Chance

Welcome

Our aim is, at all times, to ensure that every child makes the most of his or her abilities. Success is a great motivator and all children have the right to enjoy success.

Our 'vision' is to provide a high-quality, rounded and creative education, through which every child can know the joy of learning, and be supported to reach his or her potential. All children have strengths. These can readily be seen in academic achievement or in artistic, musical, dramatic and sporting success. Equal to these are the abilities which help us to excel as people.

We aim to create a calm yet highly stimulating environment, within which every child can feel secure and grow in self-confidence, gaining the necessary personal, social and academic life-skills to succeed in a rapidly changing world - whilst never forgetting the vital importance of such "traditional values" as courtesy and thought for others.

Darci Arthur, Head of School

      Dear Parents and Carers, Thank you for your patience this morning as we trialled our new gates system.

Please use the first car-park to drop your child off – there is now a safe pathway running around the pool for your child to walk in safely. The drop-of...
