Nurturing potential for all within a Christian ethos at St Johns, we work to enable all children to achieve their full potential within our Christian family. We nurture individuality - providing challenge, developing self-esteem and promoting care and respect for each other and God's world.
St John's is a Church of England Primary School, located in the South Buckinghamshire village of Lacey Green. The school is at the heart of the community and plays a central role providing a high quality education for its pupils.
We are linked to St John's Church set opposite the school and this underpins our strong Christian ethos from which to carry out our vision: Nurturing Potential for all within a Christian Ethos. In February 2018, St John's became a member of the Oxford Diocesan Bucks School Trust (ODBST), a multi academy trust.
Be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God, for Christ's sake hath forgiven you - Ephesians 4:32 Trust in the Lord, for the lord is everlasting strength - Isaiah 26:4
