I feel very privileged to be the Headteacher of High Bank Junior, Infant and Nursery School. We pride ourselves on being an integral part of the local community. We have approximately 130 children on roll, ranging from Nursery to Year 6. Our vision and values underpin all that we do.
At High Bank we are " All different, all valued" and this is what makes High Bank a special place to learn and work. Emphasis is placed upon strong relationships between staff and children and we believe strongly in the partnership between home and school. We want families to be actively involved in supporting children's learning and the school.
We aim for children to develop awareness of responsibilities towards themselves, others, and the environment. They are actively encouraged to make positive contributions to their own education, school and community in general. We are a happy, positive school and look forward to a productive and successful future.
