Our Open Evening will takes place on Tuesday 4th October 2022 from 5 to 8pm (for Year 6 pupils and parents/carers only), when prospective pupils (Year 6) and their parents are able to take a tour around our school and listen to our Headteacher. Headteacher welcome talks will take place at 5:10pm, 6pm and 7pm but spaces are limited and we cannot guarantee a specific time.
There is also only very limited parking on site. So planning your visit ahead of time and considering alternative car parks is essential.

These are also for Year 6 pupils and parents/carers and by appointment only. To make an appointment, please call our Admin Office on 01707 275331 .

You can also discover our school through a range of virtual resources below, including a virtual tour, speeches by our current and former pupils as well as parents and governors, general and subject specific information about our curriculum, enrichment clubs and much more.

Headteacher’s Welcome

Mr Alf Wood

"The headteacher has maintained a laser-like focus on teaching and learning." "The climate for learning in the school is exceptionally positive. Excellent and caring staff bring out the best in pupils. The pupils thrive in a secure and calm environment." "The curriculum is broad and balanced. There is a wide range of extra-curricular activity, with every teacher running at least one activity. There is a very strong focus on literacy." "Pupils of all abilities make very strong progress and achieve very high results across a wide range of subjects." "Pupils’ personal development is a jewel in the crown of this school."
