Principal’s Welcome
It is my pleasure to welcome you and your child to Saint Nathaniel’s Academy, which is part of the St Bart’s Multi-Academy Trust.
At Saint Nathaniel’s we share your desire to provide the very best education for the children in our school. We believe that every child is special and unique and we are passionate about providing high quality learning experiences which will ensure every child feels fully supported, whilst also enabling all children to achieve to their full potential.
As a Church of England school we seek to encourage an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith and promote Christian values through the experiences we offer all our pupils. We welcome diversity and have high expectations for everyone to behave with mutual respect for each other regardless of gender, race, religion or economic background.
Our children are offered an engaging and inspiring curriculum, a curriculum which is rich in opportunities to develop not only academically but also to develop creatively, physically, emotionally and socially.
As part of the St Bart’s Academy Trust, we are privileged to work in partnership with other successful and ambitious schools, sharing expertise and innovative practice for the benefit of all pupils across the trust.
We believe that we can only achieve the best for your child by establishing effective working relationships between home and school. There will be many opportunities for you to find out about and share in the education of your child and my staff and I are always available to talk to you about any aspect of your child’s development.
Thank you for taking the time to read our prospectus and I warmly invite you to visit us in person to see for yourself.
