Meet the Senior Leadership Team
The school's Senior Leadership team is made up of the Headteacher, Deputy Headteacher and three Assistant Headteachers.
Each year group has a member of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) attached to it. If you have a concern that cannot be dealt with by your child's class teacher or year group Team Leader, then it will be dealt with by the SLT link for that year group
