Headteacher’s Welcome
On behalf of St John the Baptist CE Primary School & Nursery, I would like to welcome you to our school website.
Our Outstanding Nursery and Early Years (Reception) classes (Ofsted 2019) are at the very beginning of high quality education offered by our school; we are open for pupils from 2 to 11 years old.
St John the Baptist CE Primary School is a small village primary school with an outstanding integrated nursery, where the children are at the heart of everything we do. We are very proud of the family atmosphere we foster in and around school and the kind, caring, motivated pupils, who learn in an inclusive, nurturing and Christian environment. At St John’s, our key values of ‘Love, Hope and Respect’ permeate everything we do. We understand that all pupils are different and have a range of needs, therefore we ensure that their work is planned carefully to ensure they may reach their full potential.
Our School Vision;
‘with God all things are possible’
Matthew 19:26
Our school nurtures all pupils and those in our school community to flourish as individuals; educationally, spiritually and morally, promoting Christian values through the experience we offer to all.
We really value the relationship between school and parents and carers and we are always happy to welcome parents and carers into school to celebrate achievements, share experiences and provide support for our children. Furthermore, we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. St John the Baptist CE Primary School & Nursery is part of the Bomere and the XI Towns Federation alongside Bomere Heath CE Primary School.
If you are moving to the area and considering us as the school for your child, we would be delighted to show you around. Please see the contacts page for details of how to get in touch.
We hope that you enjoy this website and find it both informative and useful.
Academisation
Thank you to those of you who gave feedback on the proposal to convert St John the Baptist C of E Primary School and Nursery to an Academy and join Shropshire Church of England Academies Trust.
The consultation period has now come to an end and Governors have considered the feedback from all stakeholders received via e-mail, the in-person meetings and the MS Forms survey. Governors will now continue with the process, taking due diligence. A full report on the consultation findings, next steps, along with the presentation from the meetings, is available below.
Parents/carers will be informed when any final decisions are made but should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us in school.
