Ethos & Values

"Be Kind ~ Be Your Best ~ Be Happy"

Thankfulness Kindness Justice Love Forgiveness Responsibility Courage

We are a Church School belonging to the Diocese of Peterborough, proudly celebrating over 350 years of educating children in an environment where our Christian Values provide a firm foundation.

Head Teacher's Message

Welcome from Executive Headteacher Mr David Rosevear. The message describes the aim to provide a wide range of learning opportunities in a safe, nurturing and happy environment, notes a soft federation with West Haddon Primary School, celebrates over 350 years of Christian education, and states the motto Be Kind ~ Be Your Best ~ Be Happy.

Curriculum Highlights

Develop a broad, ambitious curriculum – to include literature, history, art, and music from various times, places, faiths and cultures. Invite speakers or workshops reflecting different walks of life (e.g., local community representatives, a string quartet). Organise trips to museums, theatres, cultural events, and heritage sites. Acknowledge and celebrate various cultural festivals and holidays (through assemblies, activities or displays). Use technology to expose children to a wider range of experiences than in daily life. Provide enrichment clubs encompassing a broad range of topics.

SEND Provision

SEN provision is delivered by a dedicated team of teachers and classroom support staff. When necessary, children may work in small groups or 1:1, with targets and strategies advised by external agencies such as Educational Psychologists. The SENCO oversaw provision and liaises with class teachers and external services.

Admissions Criteria

All admissions are dealt with through West Northamptonshire Council’s online application process. The school has a Published Admission Number (PAN) of 15 for Reception. The linked area includes the villages of Clipston, East Farndon, Great Oxendon, Hothorpe, Kelmarsh, Marston Trussell, Thorpe Latimer (Lubenham) and Arthingworth, with admissions potentially from outside this area. Places are allocated first to Looked After Children, then to those living in the linked area, then to children with a sibling at the school, then other applicants; if PAN is exceeded, priority is given to those living closest to the school. Tie-breaker is random allocation.
