About the school
“Respect is our foundation. Before a child can learn, they must feel seen, heard and valued. The way we treat one another creates the safety that allows trust to grow — and it is in that trust that learning truly begins.”
Established school - open since before 2015. Became an academy in March 2026, continuing the school that was already there.
