As a member of the Chester Diocesan Academy Trust (CDAT), we can offer:
Delightful pupils who are polite, respectful and keen to learn.
A very friendly and happy school with a caring Christian ethos in which all members of the school community are highly valued and nurtured as individuals.
Strong, supportive links between staff, governors, parents and the community.
Beautiful surroundings to provide opportunities for enrichment.
Our school is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
