The children are at the centre of everything which we do.

The acquisition of knowledge and skills is the entitlement of every child, irrespective of ability or background. We strive to offer high quality teaching and exciting, stimulating experiences and we are extremely proud of the achievements of our children.
Our school has been located in its new building since 2007 and benefits from bright modern facilities, set in beautiful and extensive grounds and is fully accessible to all.
Should you have any questions about our school, or if you would like to come and visit to find out more about us, please get in touch.
