We are a very happy school, where children, staff, families and the Diocese work together to provide an exciting and caring learning environment Together we value and care for each other, our school and ourselves. Ofsted state that ‘Pupils are extremely caring, thoughtful and considerate, succeeding in following the school’s values of respect, honesty, forgiveness and joy. Pupils of all backgrounds, cultures and faiths work and play together very harmoniously’.

Our school has an innovative, and creative curriculum called the 'Christ Church Curriculum Safari' which we created and have developed ourselves. People come from all over the country to see what we are doing at Christ Church. We feel very honoured. We are also blessed with beautiful grounds and accommodation, and a wonderful community of people supporting what goes on.

We always strive to do the best for our children, and seek to improve our school every year. We do place great importance on achieving well academically; however, we believe that education is more than that. It is about giving children a true love of learning, and nurturing independent and creative thinkers. Our School Vision encapsulates this and underpins everything we do.

At Christ Church we recognise that everyone is a ‘unique child of God’ with individual gifts and talents that need to be recognised and nurtured. Underpinned by the principles of the Early Years Foundation Stage, our curriculum has been designed with innovation, creativity and a sense of adventure at the heart; the curriculum enables our children to thrive and flourish, as well as feeling a strong sense of worth and achievement.

At Christ Church we provide a broad, balanced, rich and relevant curriculum through which we strive to inspire all of our children to develop curious minds and a love of learning. The school’s curriculum provides memorable experiences and rich opportunities for high-quality learning and wider personal development and well-being. Careful planning for progression of skills and knowledge enables pupils to take advantage of opportunities, responsibilities and experiences; allowing them to thrive and flourish throughout their lives.
