​​​​​​​A Welcome To Our School

I am proud to lead a dedicated and enthusiastic team of staff and governors, alongside our wonderful pupils and their families. As a three-form entry junior school, we are committed to providing an excellent education that enables every child to thrive academically, socially, and personally.

Our values sit at the heart of everything we do at RJS, and we strive each day to live out what it means to be K.I.N.D. This approach shapes our learning environment, our relationships, and the way we support one another as a school community. We aim to create a place where every child feels valued, safe, and motivated to do their best and we believe our children should leave school ‘ambitious, proud and ready for life.’

“The headteachers vision for a ‘culture of kindness’ permeates the school.”

Challenge Partners June 2024

“The school’s work to promote pupils’ broader development is a considerable strength. Pupils benefit from a wider range of enrichment opportunities that develop character, talents and interests. For example, pupils can take part in residential trips every year and have opportunities to perform in rock bands.”
