Church School

Church of England schools comprise 23% of all maintained schools in England and Wales.

The schools include infant, junior, primary, middle, all age secondary schools and academies. The Church does not currently run special schools, sixth form colleges or Further Education Colleges.

Church of England schools are established primarily for the communities they are located in. They are inclusive and serve equally those who are of the Christian faith, those of other faiths and those with no faith.

Church schools are recognised for their distinctive Christian ethos and the impact this has on standards and all round education. 

We recognise our historic foundation and will preserve and develop our religious character in accordance with the principles of the Church of England and in partnership with the Church at parish and diocesan level. We aim to nurture Christian children in their faith and serve the wider community of which they are a part.

St Margaret's is both a distinctly Christian and inclusive community. We encourage an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith. We promote Christian values and spiritual development through the experience it offers to all its pupils whilst being open to the diverse community it serves.  

Our Christian Values:
The Christian values that underpin all we do at St Margaret's C of E Junior School are Respect, Resilience, Responsibility.
