Headteacher: Nicky Ross

Welcome to our wonderful primary school and nursery. 

Celebrating our top exam results

We are incredibly proud of Key Stage 2 results 2025.

We have achieved some of the very best results in the borough.

We are now rated in the top schools in the country.

Award winning

The school is also award winning - Silver Award, The Pearsons National Teaching Awards, Primary School of the Year.

The children, staff and school community worked tirelessly to ensure our Year 6 children left us with a great foundation for secondary school.

Building strong relationships

We want to continue building strong relationships with all our families. We want to build a thriving PTA.

We offer all our families support through our Community Outreach team, who provide free training, courses, and day to day help with family issues. Our Outreach team is nationally recognised as one of the very best there is.

Our school is a place where achievement is both expected and celebrated; a place where all members of the school community care about each other and are kind to each other; a place where behaviour is excellent and where success of all kinds is recognised so that we can take pride in all the work we do.

Dedicated staff

We are committed to building strong relationships with all our families and to developing a thriving PTA.

Through our Community Outreach team we offer families a wide range of free training, courses, and day-to-day help with family issues. The team is nationally recognised as one of the very best in the country.

Our school is a place where achievement is both expected and celebrated. It is a community where people care for one another, where kindness is valued, behaviour is excellent, and success of all kinds is recognised and shared with pride.
