Welcome from our headteacher

I am very proud to be the headteacher at St Bartholomew’s I and will do my best to ensure that after a very challenging few years we are able to focus on the children’s learning to work towards our vision of being an outstanding school. 

We are a large, Church of England, inner city, multi-cultural church school, which bases its ethos and vision on Christian values. We value the contribution that everyone makes to school life, placing great importance on creating fulfilled and happy people. 

Our school’s Christian vision represents all that we strive for: using the story of The Lost Sheep to underpin our belief that no child or adult be left behind and we will support all our school family to flourish and achieve their best. 

We have high expectations of all children both socially and academically. We aim to provide young people with the experiences they need to develop into successful learners; confident individuals and compassionate citizens of society. 

It is our aim that at the end of their years' at St Bartholomew’s, all children will have a sense of achievement and fulfilment as a result of their experiences here and will leave us for their next school as a flourishing individual. 

The governors, teachers, support staff and all stakeholders are dedicated to providing the best possible broad and balanced education for your child and we work enthusiastically to achieve this. 

We look forward to welcoming you to work in our school and hope it is an enjoyable and developmental experience in your professional journey. 

If you already work with us, I would like to thank you for your hard work and if you are just joining us, welcome to what I hope you will find to be a truly great experience with hard working staff and the most amazing children. 

I hope that your child will be very happy with us and I hope we can work together to ensure they achieve their best.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or concerns.
