Sexton's Manor is a warm, caring and vibrant community. We work hard to provide both support and challenge so that all children, regardless of their starting points, achieve well and are well prepared to lead happy and fulfilling lives. Every day, it is a joy to welcome our children into school. They are wonderful ambassadors, both within the school and beyond the school gates.
They are courteous, kind and respectful, and they contribute hugely to the positive atmosphere that makes our school special. The children at Sexton's Manor work hard and take great pride in their achievements. They enjoy their learning, speak enthusiastically about their subjects, and take advantage of the many opportunities available to them.
Through roles such as school councillors, they engage actively with British values and help shape the direction of our school. Staff know our children well and provide high-quality care, interventions and support. We also benefit from a range of specialists who help ensure that both the academic and emotional needs of our pupils are met.
