I am Karen Marshall and I am very proud to be the headteacher of Manor Road Primary School. I am responsible with our Governing Body for the leadership and management of the school. We have a dedicated staff team at Manor Road and we are very proud of all the children in our school family.
We work in partnership with parents, governors and the community to provide the very best education and care we can to ensure our children are safe, happy and their individual needs and interests are met. We aim to provide a rich and exciting curriculum so that our children not only attain high standards in basic subjects, but achieve well in many areas.
They achieve some amazing things, some of which we share with you Here you will find. We hope you enjoy seeing them! Confidence in a school comes from knowing it well and our website provides you with much information which we hope you will find useful.
However, it is only by personal contact that you will recognise our commitment at Manor Road to providing the highest possible standard of education and welfare for each individual child.
