Our goals and successes are grounded in our Christian values, and we work to make sure that every member of our school community—students, staff, parents, governors, and volunteer helpers—feels appreciated.
Our school maintains such high standards and, as a result, draws students from farther away than its immediate catchment area because to this collective devotion and tenacity.
It is more crucial than ever that we as a school have the self-assurance to assess our own environment and stay true to our own aims and values in an era of ongoing, major change in education.
We take great satisfaction in not just giving the kids a top-notch academic education, but also in helping them find their unique abilities and appreciate those of others.
Staff members must possess the knowledge and motivation to ensure that every kid can realise their potential if the aforementioned goals are to be met.
We are very proud of our staff team's diversity of skill and the efficient teamwork among our employees as they strive to serve as admirable and motivating role models.
Our accommodations and amenities go well beyond what is generally expected of a primary school, giving staff members more possibilities to provide engaging and innovative instruction and a remarkable array of enrichment activities.
We were thrilled that Ofsted recognised and validated our great provision and success in March 2016, judging our school to be "Outstanding in all Areas" and referring to us as "one of a very tiny handful of elite schools nationally."
In addition, we were one of only two North West Primary Schools chosen in December 2016 to be included as an example of excellent practise in Ofsted's Annual Report, which stated that Senior Leaders "operate as a highly effective team to deliver high quality teaching."
See our school prospectus for more information in-depth about our offerings and procedures.
We hold an open evening during the autumn term to give parents and preschoolers a chance to see our facilities and interact with the students and staff.
