At St Michael's we prioritise positive relationships, academic achievement, and spiritual development. Our team of teachers and support staff are passionate about nurturing a love for learning in every child, empowering them to reach their fullest potential academically, socially and spiritually. Our ambitious vision, coupled with the support of Canonium Learning Trust, marks the start of an exciting new era for our school, staff, and pupils.
Our small primary school, situated between Ramsey and Little Oakley, serves the local community, along with children from the wider Harwich and Dovercourt area.

We are proud to have been named "Tes Trust of the Year" (9 Schools or Fewer) in 2025, a national award that recognises excellence in education, innovation in leadership, and the power of community collaboration.
At the heart of our Trust is a shared belief that every child deserves the best possible education, regardless of the size or location of their school. We work relentlessly to nurture each child's potential and enthusiasm for learning, so that they leave our schools ready to embrace future challenges and make a positive contribution to society.
