Our School

We have one class per each school year with a maximum of 30 pupils per class.

Our small numbers mean that all staff know all our children personally, and are proud of seeing them develop as they move through the school.
All our classes benefit from a wide range of opportunities both within and outside the school grounds.
Our well-equipped forest school and sports resources allow children to develop across the curriculum.

Our gates are open between 8.40am to 8.50am.

During this time children arrive and walk to their classroom where they are able to organise themselves and begin independent learning. A member of the school staff will always be available to talk to at this time.

At the end of the day children should be picked up at 3.20pm. At this time a member of the classroom staff will be available.

Within the day our school timings are flexible. Children will enjoy a morning break and lunch break, with some classes also taking an afternoon break.

We recognise the importance of exercise for both physical and mental wellbeing so all children will have the opportunity for physical exercise on a daily basis.
