Carol Service 2024 and SIAMS report

Save the date!
KS2 Carol Service at Derby Cathedral (Monday 2nd December 2024). Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6 classes will lead the school’s annual Carol Service, through song, dance and performance. All families welcome in Derby Cathedral as we pack out this iconic venue to really get everyone feeling festive, have a cuppa and even a mince pie (or two!). Doors open at the Cathedral at 6:40pm. The service starts at 7pm and will last approx. 45 minutes. Free entry. The collection during the service will go towards the costs of hiring the cathedral for the evening.

SIAMS Inspection report
Following our school’s Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS) before half term, we are pleased to publish the school’s report for our community to read and share. The report can be accessed HERE. The report is a key element of the life of all Church of England and Methodist schools in England and reflects the ongoing unique Christian character of our school.

A special thank you goes to all our children, staff, community, Rev’d Rachael Brooks, St Matthew’s Church and lots of partners from a huge range of other Christian groups, including Sandra Hinds (our school chaplain), the Valley CIDS charity and too many more for us to list! Your continued support is greatly valued and makes such a positive difference to our school and our children. Thank you.
