What the school offers its staff

Geddington CofE School is a fun, caring, inclusive and motivating place full of amazing and hardworking staff and children. Our staff are passionate about learning, but also recognise that life is more than what is contained within the curriculum. We wish for our children to be reflective thinkers who take responsibility for themselves; who understand that we all have a duty to care, to encourage and support one another and that we are part of a much wider, wonderfully diverse society which we can learn from, serve and contribute to.

We are a one form entry village school with just over 200 pupils. We have very strong links to our local community and particularly with St Mary Magdalene Church. Our community is made up of an increasingly broad area, proudly serving children from Geddington, local villages, Kettering and Corby.
