Headteacher's Message
Our Mission
To provide a holistic Christian education for all and to inspire discipleship.
Our Vision
To be a Christian community in which everyone grows in character, faith, knowledge, understanding and wisdom.
The start of term is always a fresh start, with new uniforms and shoes, big blazers, full stationery sets, and determination to work hard.
It also brings anxiety for some, their freedom of six weeks summer holiday has ended, exams are closer, class make up changes, staff change, and timetables look different.
We are a small school, where children can be known well. We have a student support team to help our vulnerable young people, a counsellor who makes time for everyone, and relatively small teaching groups. Staff articulate a calling to Christian education, and commit to praying for your families. A group of parents commit to praying for our school and supporting us with our mission and vision. Two parents (one of whom now has adult children who have long since left) and a governor are supporting our residentials this term, for which I am very grateful.
I am privileged to work in this Christian community in which everyone grows in character, faith, knowledge, understanding and wisdom.
