Mr Morris
Executive Headteacher
I have been Head Teacher of the federation for over 4 years. I am passionate about education and feel strongly that as a CofE village school we offer a broad curriculum with a kind and caring ethos that is focused on each child being an individual.
Observing children grow and develop into caring, confident, responsible young people with a love for learning has been a real privilege. Ensuring each child recognises and nurtures their unique parcel of talents is integral to my educational philosophy and underpins the values foundation of our schools and federation.
Both schools in our federation have many strengths, dedicated staff teams and support from our churches and communities. I look forward to building on this foundation as the Head of the Federation as we move forward together.
