iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).It is a great pleasure and privilege to introduce myself as headteacher of St John's Church of England Primary School. We are a church school with strong links with All Saints Church and a Christian ethos reflected in all we do. I'd like to welcome you to our website which I hope will give you a real flavour of our 'Learning, loving and laughing' community.
However nothing can be better than the real thing so I would like to encourage you to come and visit us and see our wonderful school busy working to achieve our best. We really are an active 'community' and you'll see parents, governors, teachers, support staff and children all busy learning together at different times.
Children begin their learning journey in Reception aged four and leave us ready to begin their secondary education at the end of Year 6, aged eleven. I'd like to take the opportunity to boast about our grounds that are fully utilised by the children during their break times but also to enrich their learning opportunities.
