From the Christ Church CofE Primary School
It is a great honour and duty to be entrusted with a child's education.
The majority of the staff at our school are parents, so we are aware of how crucial the primary years are in putting kids on a satisfying, aspirational, and joyful path.
Parents are overwhelmingly happy about the leadership of the school, according to our most recent Ofsted report (July 2017).
We can provide a personalised education with a family atmosphere.
Parents occasionally inquire as to how we manage to teach in mixed-age classes. The answer is that we consider each child as an individual rather than a member of a specific year group.
This was acknowledged by Ofsted, which stated, "In mixed-age groups, kids frequently get tailored provision in line with their particular requirements."
We believe in listening to kids as well as making time for parents.
Students in grades 1 through 6 are members of the school council and engage in frequent speaking and listening exercises.
We respect children and demand that they do the same for one another.
Visits to the school are welcome.
With your family, we hope to have a joyful and fruitful cooperation.
