St Thomas’ is a Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School and nursery; the Christian faith is the foundation of everything that we do; the school is owned by Manchester Diocese and the Governing Board are the employers; the Christian ethos and Bible verse are central to school life (e.g., John 10 v 10).
Admissions Policy details include: Nursery start options for 2025 (January start with closing date 31 October 2024; April 2025 start with closing date 31 January 2025; September 2025 start with closing date 31 March 2025).
