Our mission is “Growing learners to live in God’s world”. We are looking for a visionary Headteacher who will work with St Andrew’s Church to make this mission a reality.

Our aim is to be a centre of excellence for primary teaching where staff are proud to develop their talents in a cutting-edge learning environment. To achieve this ambitious future for our school we need an energetic, innovative and determined leader with a passion for delivering the very best education for our children.
