It gives me great pleasure to be the Head of School at St John’s Infant and Nursery School. My goal for each child is to ensure that they are HAPPY, fulfil their potential and are provided with all the necessary opportunities to be the best they can be both socially and academically. 

St. John's is a two-form entry school for children aged 3 to 7. We pride ourselves on being a welcoming school with a commitment to fostering a nurturing, inclusive environment for all. At the heart of our school is a strong Christian ethos that guides our values and principles. 

St John’s has a hugely committed and talented staff team, and of course our wonderful children, who are at the heart of all we do.  The needs of our children are always paramount in the decision making within a school. I strongly believe in providing our children with exciting, creative and meaningful learning experiences, which build their enthusiasm for learning and can help them grow and develop into their own unique individuals.  

In my experience it is crucial to involve our children and their families as partners in their education. I know how vital working in partnership with parents really is in order for children to find school a positive and rewarding experience. I feel that it is important that you have a voice and that as a school we are approachable and will listen to your concerns, worries or thoughts about your child’s education. 

I hope this website gives a flavour of St. John’s.  If you are interested in applying for a school place for Nursery, Reception or an in-year application, or a professional visit, please contact us via the school office. 

Please watch our full length virtual tour, however here is small glimpse into our school.  If you would like to book a visit to the school, please contact the school office.

Looking forward to meeting you in person, 

Mrs Gillam

Head of School
