I would highly recommend this school to anybody. Even though my daughter is one of the youngest in the year, she has excelled in all areas….Great teachers and great school.
We could not have chosen a better school! We are so pleased with how much you do with the children; the discos, trips, panto etc! Some of our friends whose children go to school elsewhere do not do half of what you do at St Botolph’s! Our son loves the Sunday timetable that we get sent so he can see what his week will look like.
After being in this school for only one year, I am so pleased with the progress that both of my children are making. Class teachers are fantastic and always approachable no matter how busy they are, and I must say Mrs Pepper is FANTASTIC! I love attending the assemblies and school activities because of how enthusiastic she and all the teachers are! Keep up the good work.

As a Christian school we teach RE as a discrete subject and use the RE and wider curriculum to find ways to explore pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, utilising our local and wider community.
As there are limited languages and religions represented through our school community, we provide a range of experiences across their Primary education, to enable pupils to understand and respect those from other faiths and communities and appreciate that people live their lives differently.
Right to withdraw from RE:
The ERA allows parents to withdraw their child from religious education classes if they so wish, although this should only be done after the parents have met with the Headteacher and given written notice to the school governors. Please read our full RE policy here for further details
Please click on the link below to read about the intent behind our religious education curriculum, find out how it is implemented and how we know what the impact is on children's learning and enjoyment.
Please see the Year Group Curriculum Overviews to find out more about the themes, units of work and skills taught in each year group.
