Head's Welcome

It gives me immense pleasure to extend a heartfelt welcome to you all, whether you are new to our school family or returning for another exciting year. As Headteacher, I am incredibly proud to lead a community that is dedicated to fostering an environment where every child can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Our school is a vibrant and nurturing place where we believe in unlocking the full potential of each individual. We are committed to providing a rich and engaging curriculum that challenges and inspires, encouraging curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning. Our dedicated and passionate staff work tirelessly to create a supportive atmosphere where students feel safe, valued, and empowered to explore their interests and develop their talents.

Beyond academic excellence, we place a strong emphasis on character development. We strive to instil the core values of ‘belong, believe, aspire and achieve ’in our students, preparing them to be responsible citizens who contribute positively to society. We believe that a strong partnership between home and school is crucial for a child's success, and we encourage open communication and active participation from all members of our community.

We truly believe that every member of our community has great potential, and we are dedicated to nurturing the confidence and mindset for students to try new things, ensuring that everyone can keep getting better in all they do. We are also extremely proud of our rich and varied extra-curricular activities, as well as the numerous trips and visits we offer, which play a vital role in building confidence and broadening horizons and experiences for all.

The FCC Promise: Our Vision

Our vision is for our school to be a beacon of excellence, delivering high-quality, inclusive education and experiences in a nurturing and supportive environment. To achieve this, we make four key FCC promises:

  • We will deliver high-quality, inclusive teaching.
  • We will provide a nurturing environment.
  • We will immerse students in a range of experiences (both inside and outside the classroom).
  • We will empower staff through a framework that is supportive and developmental.

This year promises to be filled with exciting opportunities, new discoveries, and memorable experiences. We look forward to celebrating the achievements of our students, both big and small, and witnessing their growth into confident and compassionate individuals.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our school, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are always here to help and support you.
