Sorry, we are currently not recruiting for any vacancies
We would love you to join our Talent Pool so we can contact you when the right vacancy arises.
Currently, we have 419 children organised into 14 different classes. We offer a distinctive Christian ethos with a clear vision for excellence which is shared by all staff. We have a dedicated and inspirational team of Teachers, Teaching Assistants and Governors who work tirelessly to deliver high quality learning for all of our pupils. Children excel here and thoroughly enjoy their time in "an inclusive, caring and friendly community, in which everyone feels valued and safe". SIAS Report. Children's behaviour and conduct is outstanding demonstrating that they respect and value each other and the adults in our school community.
Pupils' attainment and progress in the core subjects of English, Maths, Science and IT and computing is significantly higher than that of pupils nationally. "Pupils' progress is tracked rigorously and underachievement tackled rapidly so that attainment is improving for all pupils". Ofsted report, March 2012.
The school has an outstanding reputation as a centre of excellence for the Arts with a clear focus on the academic, pastoral and spiritual development of all pupils. Our strongly interwoven links with Horfield Parish Church and the local and wider community are greatly valued. Children benefit hugely from a wealth of vibrant and challenging curriculum experiences and are justifiably proud of their school.
A large number of children learn and play musical instruments and enjoy opportunities to perform with our School orchestra. 80 children sing in our KS2 Choir and 60+ in our KS1 Choir. We regularly compete, with significant success, in a range of competitive sports events and chess competitions. Drama experiences ranging from our annual Reception/KS1 Nativity plays to performances with the Schools Shakespeare Company on the Tobacco Factory stage all contribute to developing very 'well-rounded' young people with a range of talents and good levels of self-confidence.
All opportunities to work in partnership with parents are greatly valued so that children are able to get the most out of school.
"Deeply rooted, flourishing together, reaching great heights”.
The School's vision is underpinned by Psalm 1:
"Like a tree firmly planted by streams of living water".
Our school's values
These values flow from our vision and will be the habits and practices we seek to embody in all adults and children at this school:
As a church school, these are Christian values rooted in stories from the Bible. They are also for all, regardless of faith.
They are values for everyone - children of all faiths and none.
