The school's Christian values are having a good impact on children's academic achievement - SIAMS Nestled in the rural village of Oldbury-on-Severn, just above the Severn estuary, our small, inclusive school welcomes children from the local area and beyond.
With close links to our farming community and village church, we offer a nurturing environment where every child is known and valued. Through our rich, values-led curriculum, we help children Love, Learn and Flourish —developing big ambitions, strong character, and a sense of belonging.
