About the school
“Interwoven throughout our curriculum and ethos, are embedded values that allow children to develop an understanding of themselves and appreciate the impact they have on other people and on the world in which they live.”
Established school - open since before 2017. Became an academy in March 2017, continuing the school that was already there.
