St. Andrew's Infant School works alongside Potters Gate Primary School with an executive leadership. The two schools have a long history together which continues to be evident with the very close working relationship that exists today.
At the heart of our schools the children's well-being and safety is centered on a creative and aspirational curriculum, exposing children to the wonders of the natural world, with everyone motivated to succeed and fulfil their unique destiny. I have come that you may have life - life in all its fullness.
Developing in our children the ability to find joy in life, the natural world, finding moral strength for their own lives. We celebrate our differences, welcoming families of different faiths, social and ethnic backgrounds to our school family. This is achieved through our Christian Values of: Fellowship, Justice, Resilience and Trust.
St Andrew's Infant School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
