Our Federation aims to provide an aspirational and rounded education for all children in our distinct community.
We want our children to have the very best start in life and are fortunate in being able to offer a wide range of family services through our Children’s Centre.
In our schools we want children to grow into confident, thoughtful and highly motivated learners, unlocking their potential through continually expanding what they believe to be possible.
We have wonderful grounds at both schools, enabling us to provide rich indoor and outdoor learning environments where we can cultivate the habits and attitudes of curious, confident, independent learners.
As well as achieving well academically, we believe that it’s important for children to build the mental, emotional and social skills to enjoy challenge, and cope with the increasingly uncertain and complex world they live in.
Above all we aim to stir in children a passion for discovering the things they excel at and to develop the capability and confidence to pursue them actively throughout their lives.
