This is a local primary school, which has around 240 pupils. It has a nice village feel to it and has recently improved it's facilities, such as PE equipment, laptop computers, library, extended playground etc. Alot of the money was in part raised by the fundraising society Friends of St.James.
The teachers and staff are friendly and it does quite well in the league tables - if you are interested in that type of thing.
It has also extended it's working day, offering many after school activities - such as netball, football, rounders, band, multi-games to name a few. There is even an aerobics lesson available before school on one day of the week.
It has a school band and offers music lesson, indeed this is one of it's strengths, with the school doing well in local competitions.
There is also a Playgroup which is open on the school grounds, which offers before and after school care.
By the way, school dinners are healthy and taste great, a credit to the canteen staff.
The only drawback is parking is only available on side streets and it can become congested - although the school does encourage children to walk to school. read more
