From the Unstone Junior School
We're glad you're here. This website aims to inform visitors about the instruction offered by both institutions while also keeping parents and students informed of upcoming events, dates, and news. We hope it will be helpful to you and give you a feel for the school. Being the Executive Headteacher of the Federation makes me happy and feel privileged. We have engaged students, great teachers, dedicated governors, and helpful parents in each of our schools. We recognise that time in school is such an important time for both children and their families and we always aim to ensure that every child feels happy, safe, secure and confident in their school life and is well equipped for the next stage of their education. We are a team of skilled professionals from two small schools who are passionate about making learning enjoyable and engaging. In September 2016, Unstone Junior School and Unstone St. Mary's Nursery & Infant School merged to form a federation. The two colleges collaborate frequently while maintaining their individual identities. The community school Unstone St. Mary's Nursery & Infant School serves kids from 3 to 7 years old. There are now 53 students enrolled in the school, and we have a 19-student entrance cap. Children between the ages of 7 and 11 can attend Unstone Junior School, a community junior high school. The maximum number of students we can admit is 19, however there are presently 50 students enrolled. Both schools are in typical Victorian structures that have undergone numerous alterations over the years, but they continue to function primarily as village schools where each student is known as an individual due to the tiny class sizes. I'm hoping Unstone will excite you about what it has to offer. I hope too that you will share our vision for the school over the years to come.
