A very warm welcome to our school website. We hope you find the information helpful and informative.

I am honoured to be the Head Teacher of St Johns Primary School, a happy, nurturing and engaging learning environment where children are encouraged to thrive. Our core values of respect, kindness, faith, gratitude, courage and determination are central to everything we do and underpin daily life at St Johns.

Our dedicated staff team is committed to working in partnership with families as part of a strong community of faith and learning, ensuring that every child is supported to achieve their full potential. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school where success and achievement are celebrated, and where high-quality learning and teaching inspire our pupils to become motivated, confident, successful and responsible learners.

We value the close partnerships we share with our parents and carers and recognise the important role they play in supporting our positive learning environment. We hope you will see St Johns as an integral part of the wider community and feel encouraged to become involved in school life and events.
I look forward to working in partnership with you to support your child in being the very best they can be.
