The school community is made up of our children, their families, and the ‘grown-ups in school’.

Our school is led by the Endeavour Learning Trust and our Local Academy Council who work closely with Mrs J Shorrocks (Executive Headteacher).

We have a wonderful group of adults who contribute to the running of the school, and they aren’t all staff – we also have visiting external professionals such as counsellors, sports coaches and some fantastic volunteers!

Our staff team is made up of our teachers, teaching assistants, deputy DSL, operation manager, receptionist, site supervisor, cleaners and our catering team.

The people in our school staff team (at September 2024) are listed below:

Every single one of these people is vital to the success of our school!
