Dear Parents, Carers and Readers,

Welcome to our School web site, which I hope you will find both interesting and informative. We try to update it on a regular basis, to keep you as fully informed as possible, but please, if you cannot find information you are looking for, or have comments or suggestions to make, don't hesitate to let us know. Thankyou to those parents and carers who have already made such positive comments and contributions.

If you wish to see or obtain a copy of any of the school's policies, please ask at the office where they will be made available to you.  These include the school's policies on Safeguarding and Child Protection, Health and Sex Education, and Accessibility and Disability Discrimination. Hard copies of the current Prospectus, which is updated at least annually, are also available at the office.

 

Our school is a very friendly, caring and supportive school, with a strong Christian ethos. Both Ofsted  (Jan 2008 and June 2011), and the Diocesen inspectors (March 2008), rated us as a 'Good School', where children are happy, well cared for, behave well and make good progress as they move through the school. Care, Guidance and Support was judged to be Outstanding.  Life in our school is very firmly rooted in the fundamental principals of Christianity.

We currently have 160 children on roll, who are taught in 7 single-age year groups. We believe Sport, Music and the Creative Arts are paramount in giving our children the opportunity to experience a rounded, fulfilling and enjoyable time at our school, and these are given a high focus in our thematic, language enriched curriculum, and extra curricular clubs and activities.

We benefit from a lovely building, spacious grounds, and dedicated, hard working staff.  The majority of our children live within the school's catchment area, but a number of parents from outside the area also choose to send their children to us. On leaving Anthony Curton, most of our children transfer to Marshland High School.

Our office staff are very friendly and approachable, so please do not hesitate to contact them, by e mail, 'phone or letter. We will be pleased to hear from you, and aim to make your children's experience with us a happy and enriching one.

Best Wishes

Anne Senior 

Head Teacher.
