It gives me great pleasure to write to you as the Headteacher of Kingmoor Nursery and Infant School and to introduce myself. I am passionate about education and have high expectations, not only for myself but for all members of our school community.
It is my firm belief that the relationship between home and school is vital for pupils to thrive and develop a love of learning alongside values for life. We are proud of what we offer at Kingmoor Nursery and Infant School and we continue to work together to ensure we porvide the very best learning experience for our children.
At Kingmoor we offer high quality teaching and excellent progress in a stimulating, caring learning community. We pride ourselves on being a friendly open school where all children acheive well from the minute they enter school at three to when they leave for the Junior School aged 7.
