Your child’s success is central to everything we do. We aim to be both inspirational and nurturing. We are also aware that we are preparing your child for a world that is ever changing, and a world of work that may not even have been devised. Our PSB focused curriculum enables the children to have cross curricular learning, but more than this, it gives children access to an individualised differentiated approach to learning. As well as academic rigour there is a strong emphasis on building character, confidence, and resilience. The children’s success we believe, is because they feel safe and valued, the teaching team have belief in them, and this passion and belief leads to long term success. Why don't you read what the children think or our latest ISI report to learn more about life at our magical school.
