Welcome

Welcome to the St. Hild’s Church of England School where it is my privilege to be Headteacher. Our Ethos Statement sets out our determination to provide high quality education in a Christian and fully inclusive context. Our Core Values of care, equality, honesty, respect and responsibility are evident in our everyday life. We are very proud of our school and its pupils and take every opportunity to celebrate our many successes.

St. Hild’s pupils enjoy modern facilities which support our high aspirations for them. Our approach to education is built on sound, traditional teaching which has stood the test of time, enhanced by innovative and creative methods of curriculum delivery; our focus is on learning and we try to make the decisions that parents and carers would make for their own children if they could. We work tirelessly to ensure each child enjoys their education and is able to achieve the best they can, both academically and in terms of their personal and social development. “Life in all its fullness” John 10:10, is our motto and we work hard to make this a reality.

“Pupils present themselves well, wear their uniform smartly and are proud of their school.”

We take a very professional approach to all aspects of our work; there is no complacency from anyone despite the kind words of those who know our work. Our focus is always on teaching and learning; lessons provide all pupils with challenge, support, rigour and pace in proper measure. There are no shortcuts to quality in education; the way to success lies in high expectations, thorough planning, scrupulous monitoring and review and sheer hard work.

Our greatest success, however, is seen in the kindness, dedication and efforts of our pupils, staff, parents, carers and governors.

Please take some time to look at our website and get a flavour of St. Hild’s Church of England School. It is always a delight to welcome prospective parents and carers and should you wish to arrange a visit, please contact the Main School Office.
