The vision of our Federation ‘Working Together, Valuing Everyone, Learning for Life’ influences everything we do, and every opportunity the children receive. The children thrive within our vibrant and challenging curriculum.
The talented staff at All Saints’ and Emscote ensure the younger children benefit from the nurturing atmosphere that only an infant school can provide, and the older children can build confidence and prepare for secondary school with teaching and facilities designed for their age. We set up a Federation in 2012, and our schools work closely together to provide a fantastic primary school education for your child. We believe that having separate infant and junior schools gives the very best opportunity for our pupils and is something to be celebrated.
The Federation’s commitment to providing the very best opportunity for all is reflected in its most recent OFSTED reports where Emscote Infants was awarded Outstanding in all areas and All Saints’ was rated good overall and outstanding in Personal development, behaviour and welfare, with an Excellent grading in the recent SIAMS inspection (March 2023).
