We are a large, popular ‘good’ school with an intake of 60 and over 450 pupils on roll (including up to 52 nursery children). We have two buildings (infant and junior) and huge school grounds. Our children are lovely and they work hard. We are proud of each of them and their varied achievements. Our staff team is also incredibly hard working, and they combine this with flair and imagination. We work closely in teams and support and help each other.

Academic standards are generally good and sometimes very good. We have a rich and engaging curriculum and make good use of educational visits with access to a number of minibuses. We have a large number of extra-curricular clubs and a brilliant PTA that teachers support. We are strong in sports generally but would welcome even more expertise. We have a much higher than average number of children funded for their SEND and/or in possession of an EHCP. Positive attitudes to inclusion are essential at our school. We are a school that definitely can be bothered…

Our wonderful and extensive school grounds give plenty of scope for environmental work. We also have a unique ‘Farfield Farm’ resource including poly tunnels, raised beds, chickens, bees, a farm classroom and 60-tree orchard. In 2017 we were awarded the title of national Healthy School of the Year by the TES in recognition of our work around food production, cooking, healthy eating, sports and physical activity. Could you support this further? We are environmentally aware, and our infant building is largely carbon-neutral. We have extensive solar ( and a little wind) capacity across the site and try to be as sustainability-conscious as we can.

Please take a look at our website and pay particular attention to the wonderful class blogs for more information and to get a ‘feel’ for our school.
