What the school offers its staff
Our school is a vibrant and dynamic place that plays a pivotal role in the educational experience of our learners. It emulates history as it is an older building which we try to nurture and share its history. It encompasses a diverse range of facilities and outdoor spaces designed to foster learning, creativity, physical activity, and social interaction. For a one form entry school, we are lucky to have lots of outdoor space! We have large, well-equipped play areas to promote physical development and social interaction through play, as well as two courtyards, with raised beds and fruit trees. All EYFS and Key Stage One classrooms have direct access to their own outdoor learning spaces. We also have a Forest School area which we are continually developing and enhancing. Our classrooms are well sized and equipped for learning. Supporting this, are intervention classrooms for each Key Stage and a well-equipped library. We have three ELSA rooms to support with our pastoral offer and these spaces provide a safe space for children.
