Free work that holds
In mixed-age classes the children learn with and from one another. Two teachers per class make sure that every child is seen — in free work as much as in subject lessons.

How we learn
The heart of the morning, from 8:15 to 11:00: each child chooses their work, their pace and who they work with — accompanied and recorded by the teachers.
Immersive English from year 1, ukulele classes, digital literacy, PE, art and more — taught in same-age groups by specialist teachers.
All eight subjectsDetailed grid reports up to year 3 and a numerical report in year 4 — plus, in every year, a report written for the child that sets out their strengths.
The school & school lifeAfter-school clubs
The afternoon carries on: a drama club that stages its own productions, an art club, and a changing programme — from STEM projects to days of forest education.
