We are a very popular school, with many of our parents and grandparents having attended! We have around 200 children from Nursery to Year 6.
The older part of the building, built in 1895, is home to our KS2 classes and our 2 halls. This is joined to our newer building, which is home to our Foundation and KS1 classes, by our entrance and office block.
The school was last inspected in June 2017 and received a good grade with some outstanding features…for which the whole school community is rightly very proud.
