Our staff team

Our team

Our two schools have one Leadership Team. We also share other staff. This means we teach each other new things, and keep best practice. We have more ideas, and it drives us to be better.

Our specialist teachers and our highly-qualified early years educators are experts in early play. Many of them have worked here for over 20 years.
