Our Staff
Staff List 2023 - 2024
The Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and Governing Body value the quality and expertise that all our staff bring to their roles. They are our children's best resource. Each class is supported by a full time teaching assistant (TA) or higher level teaching assistant (HLTA) who also covers classes at short notice. PPA (planning, preparation and assessment time given to teachers to complete duties away from the children in their care) is covered by qualified teachers who have supported our school for many years and know our ethos and children well.
