At St John’s, we take pride in being a welcoming and inclusive school, creating a sense of family within our community. Our primary focus is on providing an excellent education while nurturing each child’s individual potential. We believe that every child, regardless of their background, can achieve excellence.

Our school is dedicated to offering a safe and positive environment where children feel valued, heard, and cared for. Christian values form the foundation of our approach, guiding everything we do. We emphasise strong partnerships with parents and carers, viewing them as essential contributors to their children’s education. We look forward to regular opportunities to connect, celebrate successes, discuss progress, and explore how families can engage in their child’s learning journey.

Supported by dedicated Academy Councillors, leading our committed team of staff who work to provide the best possible education for our pupils is a privilege. We are proud to serve the local community and represent the families that make our school unique. In the midst of ongoing changes, our mission remains the same – ‘Trust in God, Trust Yourself. Aspire, Believe, Achieve!’
