The schools work together, sharing a common vision and collective aims, but each is distinctive in character. Each is an established part of its community, working in close collaboration with parents to help their children thrive within happy and supportive environments. At our core is the knowledge that, through play, children can practise skills and come to understand and make sense of the world around them, growing into independent learners with resilient problem solving skills.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone to lead an unusual and exciting combination. Being graded Outstanding is not the end of our story. We want someone to grow the Federation beyond where it is now. We want to continue to be excited about the future. We want children to continue to be excited about learning.
