St Leonard’s CE Primary Academy is a village school with good links to our local community and a strong relationship with St Leonard’s church. We are a one-form entry school, with seven classes in total, from Reception to Year 6; living and learning together, with God’s help. We offer a rich and varied curriculum.

As a church school and as an academy within the Diocese of Bristol Academies Trust, our Christian values underpin everything that we do.

We have high aspirations and expectations, we provide our children with the highest standard of education, inspiring them to develop life long learning skills. We encourage our children to be leaders and team players; confident individuals who set themselves challenging goals, enabling them to reach their full potential. It is important for our children to thrive; become creative risk takers, innovators, develop resilience and perseverance, whilst feeling safe and valued.

We think our academy is a very special place to be and visits to our academy are warmly encouraged.

We look forward to welcoming you to our St Leonard’s family very soon.

‘Living and Learning Together with God’s Help’

This is our schools’ mission statement and it encompasses everything we do.

The Biblical underpinning for the vision comes from Mark 1. Verses 9-12, The Baptism of Jesus.

This is the first public presentation of Jesus God the Son, and this was confirmed by the God the Father in the words from heaven, ‘You are my Son, whom I love, with you I am well pleased’ and receipt of God the Holy Spirit, symbolised by the dove.

• God the Father; confirmation that we are all made in the image of God and that we were made in and for relationship with God.
• God the Son, we are loved by God, because of Jesus love for us in his death on the cross giving us our relationship with God.
• God the Holy Spirit, the provision of the spirit of God to enable us to live in relationship with him.

What this means for our children.

• We are all equal, giving us dignity and respect because we are all made in the image of God to be in relationship with him.
• We are all loved for who we are, because of our relationship with God.
• We are all enabled to live and learn with God’s help, because of our access to the Holy Spirit of God, symbolised by the dove.
