Welcome from the Headteacher

Welcome to St Paul’s C of E Primary School - a place of warmth, aspiration and joyful learning where we are committed to providing education for life for every child and family in our community.

From the very beginning, in our award-winning Early Years, we nurture and support each child as they grow in confidence, independence and curiosity. Our children are known, valued and celebrated for who they are - and who they are becoming.

At St Paul’s, learning is rich and ambitious. Through exceptional experiences, we seek to inspire a love of learning and provide opportunities that build character, deepen spirituality and help children to thrive - academically, socially and emotionally. We develop every child’s voice and offer real leadership opportunities so they leave us confident, resilient and ready for the world.

Our curriculum reflects the diversity of our school community and is enriched through creativity, performance and the arts. Children explore big questions, enjoy cultural celebrations, take part in music, drama and sport - all while developing a deep sense of connection to themselves, each other and the wider world.

We are proud of our high standards and of the strong partnerships between children, staff, families, governors and our local church. Together we create a nurturing and inclusive environment, rooted in the Christian values of faith, hope and love, where wellbeing is prioritised and every child can flourish.

We are incredibly proud of our journey - from our ‘Excellent’ SIAMS to our ‘Good’ Ofsted and outstanding Early Years - but it is the smiles, the curiosity and the sense of belonging that truly define our school.

We would be privileged to be part of your child’s learning journey. Thank you for considering St Paul’s.
