Early Years Foundation Stage
Our Early Years program provides a nurturing environment for children aged 4-5, focusing on foundational skills through play-based learning. We emphasize social development, basic literacy and numeracy, and creative exploration. The curriculum follows statutory requirements while incorporating Catholic values and preparing children for Key Stage 1 education.
Special Educational Needs
We offer tailored support for children with special educational needs through our dedicated SENCO and individualized education plans. Our approach combines specialist resources with inclusive classroom practices to ensure all children achieve their potential. Parents receive regular progress updates and collaborate with teachers to develop effective learning strategies.
Residential Ski Course
Selected pupils participate in a week-long ski course in the Italian Alps, combining physical education with character development. This unique opportunity builds resilience, teamwork, and sporting skills while creating memorable learning experiences. The program is open to junior-aged children as part of our extracurricular offerings.
After School Clubs
We provide various after-school activities including sports, arts, and academic support through both school-run and privately operated clubs. These programs extend learning beyond the classroom and develop children's interests in a supervised environment. Activities vary by term and include options like judo, music, and homework assistance.

Our Catholic faith program prepares children for key sacraments through structured religious education and parish involvement. Children receive age-appropriate instruction in Catholic doctrine while developing their personal relationship with God.
