Can we take a holiday during school time?
It is important to understand that holidays cannot now be authorised (since September 2013) due to a change in legislation by the Government.
What will I have to pay for trips and visits?
The school and Governors are committed to the general principles of free education. We also recognise the importance of providing a broad and balanced curriculum with a wide range of activities and experiences. Unfortunately this means we need to ask for a voluntary contribution towards the cost of these. Further information can be found in our Charging And Remission Policy 2024 26
How big are the classes?
We have one class per year group from Reception to Year 6. Each class contains no more than 30 pupils, making us a school with a pupil admission number of 210 in total. This does not include our Early Years Centre.
