At St John and St James we live everyday by our values of respect, community, thankfulness, forgiveness, peace and perseverance. Our school vision underpins everything that we do. We are proud of our school community and have a close relationship with our children and families. We provide a safe and happy learning environment where all children feel nurtured, loved and valued.
We enjoy services at St John the Evangelist throughout the year and our local clergy visit the school regularly to lead collective worship. We are a proudly inclusive, multi-cultural and multi-faith school, set in the vibrant and diverse area of Upper Edmonton and are privileged to have children who speak over forty different languages across our school.
Whilst we are a Church of England school, we welcome children from all faiths and none, providing space and opportunity for children to respect and explore both the Christian faith and their own traditions and faiths. We welcome visits throughout the year. Come along and meet our team.
