"One child, one teacher, one pen, and one book can change the world."
We are a Church of England School. We educate pupils in all aspects of the Christian religion whilst valuing the many other religions and cultures represented within our school and local community. Our vision is linked to the Christian verse Philippians 4:13 and our worship programme is central to school life.
The headteacher describes St Martin’s as a family with high expectations, rigorous and engaging teaching, opportunities for enrichment such as clubs, trips and pupil leadership, and a commitment to listening to families to continuously improve the school. The message emphasizes that pupils are happy and part of a close community.
We provide a range of activities and clubs for children to participate in up to 4:30pm. These clubs are organised by teachers, support staff and external providers, they are changed each half term.
