Welcome
Welcome to the primary phase of the vibrant, caring Christian learning community of St Matthew Academy.
The primary phase consists of a nursery class with 25 places and two forms in each year from Reception to Year 6. All our primary students are guaranteed a place in the secondary phase from year 7.
Sited in its own wing of St Matthew Academy, the primary phase has its own entrance and special carefully designed outdoor learning and recreation areas.
Our primary students are taught in a stimulating school environment,with an inspiring curriculum based around the International Primary Curriculum. Children are encouraged to plan and perform tasks that involve investigating, observing and reporting. Exciting and interesting fieldwork, excusions and enterprise challenges extend their learning beyond the walls of the classroom.
As an all-through school we encourage a family atmosphere of caring and there are many opportunities for older and young children to work and play together.
Please take a look around our website which will give you a flavour of the many wonderful qualities of the St Matthew Academy primary phase - and if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to email me.
