A big warm welcome to our website
We are thrilled to be opening a new school that will enhance and strengthen the local education offer. We are bringing together a committed staff team with the knowledge and expertise to make learning engaging for pupils, shining a light on their strengths and achievements by supporting them in overcoming barriers to learning by offering an empathetic approach that builds strong, trusting relationships.
Our curriculum will come to life with the help of our new facilities and surrounding woodland, igniting curiosity and enjoyment, which will be at the heart of all learning. Furthermore, it will be delivered in a way that supports the development of long-term memory alongside opportunities to link new learning to existing knowledge and skills.
This will be a school that children enjoy attending, a place where they feel they belong and know they are valued. A place of success.
