Welcome to our website. We hope it reflects the caring atmosphere of our highly effective, happy school. We welcome children into our school from the wider community as well as from Christian and other faith backgrounds. St Nicholas has a well deserved reputation for its high academic, sporting and musical achievements.
Visitors regularly comment on the happy and enthusiastic atmosphere throughout the school and the very evident Christian ethos. Our children demonstrate high standards of behaviour both in school and in the community. I am immensely proud to be a part of St Nicholas CE Primary.
Our wonderful children enjoy coming to school and benefit from the support of our excellent teaching and non-teaching staff who consistently demonstrate high levels of dedication and are always keen to work at the forefront of new educational thinking. It is a pleasure to work alongside all our children, staff, governors and parents.
We provide a broad, rich and creative curriculum, teaching our children to be caring, global citizens of tomorrow.
