Information about the School
At St Andrew’s we believe passionately that all children deserve the very best education. We plan creatively for a varied range of learning opportunities which ensure they have time to develop and practise many skills and deepen their knowledge in a range of settings across all areas of the curriculum.
We believe in developing the ‘whole child’; the skills of communication, resilience, team-work, creative thinking and questioning are dove–tailed into our curriculum and allow children to develop these skills to aid them in life and their future learning.
At St Andrew’s we work closely with parents in order to best support all childrens’ personal, social and academic achievements.
‘Let your light shine’ (Matthew 5:16) is our desire for all of our children; we aim for the highest standards of behaviour, education and academic successes – we identify individual needs of the children and develop these accordingly.
