We strongly focus on working together with families and the wider community so that school-based learning is understood and can be built upon outside the school day.
Both schools are rated 'Good' with some outstanding elements from Ofsted in the last 2 years, as well as a recent 'Excellent' SIAMS inspection in the Infants - we are at a strong point in school development and as a result our current Federation Improvement Plan is dynamic, exciting and really outward facing and our end of year outcomes are positive.
We have much to offer members of staff including - Wellbeing support (including comprehensive physical and mental health support to staff including private medical operations, counselling, physiotherapy and personal annual health checks), A focused and personalised CPD programme whereby we support improvement and further challenge, Excellent leadership mentoring/coaching programmes - supporting those who have a view to move further in their career into Senior Leadership.
