When parents arrive at St Andrew's they immediately notice the warmth and friendliness of both staff and pupils. As a small school, every boy is recognized as an individual and this coupled with a caring and approachable staff means that each one has the opportunity to reach his full potential. St Andrew's is a vibrant school with something for every boy to succeed in. Come and see us at work and satisfy yourself that this is the right choice.

Our Mission Statement

Nihil sine labore – “Nothing without effort”

At St Andrew’s we seek to enable everyone to develop their God-given potential and a love for learning within a caring, challenging Christian environment.  We aspire to be a centre of excellence working together to develop each member’s full potential.   St Andrew’s expects the whole school community to be exemplary in conduct, to work hard and care for others.  We aim both to learn from and be an inspiration to all, where students are proud of their school.  Skills and confidence will be developed to the highest level enabling students to achieve personal excellence, be motivated, and prepare them as good citizens.
 

We aim to journey together guided by God to:

• promote a climate where students understand the benefits of working hard.
• encourage co-operation and collaborative working in the school and beyond.
• respect and value each person, work as a team and care for others.
• provide excellent opportunities for the pupil’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, underpinned by Christian faith.
• work cohesively with our students, Governing Body, parents, churches, local and wider community.
• establish high quality Collective Worship and Religious Education.
