Our school caters for approximately 330 pupils from 3 years to 11 years of age. The present school site was opened as a Primary School in 1993, on the existing Infant School site.

The whole school community works hard, shows respect, courtesy and good manners and enjoys being together.’ Please visit the Ofsted section of our website for more information.
