- a highly experienced, talented, supportive and approachable team of colleagues;
- a shared determination to inspire children to learn;
- a leadership team ready to support you fully in your professional development;
- a well-resourced and modern learning environment in a beautiful natural setting;
- a large designated forest nature reserve on site;
- A highly trained and ever-developing Wellbeing Team working through the school;
- a governing body dedicated to the wellbeing of the children, families and staff as well as the success of the school.

As well as excellently resourced classrooms and facilities such as library, ICT suite and swimming pool, we have a huge nature reserve on site which the children use every week. The muddy wellies outside every classroom tell the story of what we’re aiming to achieve for our children’s health and wellbeing.
