Welcome to our school website.
At St Barnabas we strive to help every child to, ‘achieve great things’ and live ‘life in all its fullness’ by inspiring them with rich, fun experiences and equipping them with a love of learning. Our school has a strong Christian ethos built on our core Gospel values which the children chose themselves: Trust, Forgiveness,Friendship, Generosity, Respect, Service and Courage. St Barnabas was known in the Bible as an encourager so we try to follow his example and encourage others. With close links with our parish church, other schools in our multi-academy Trust and our dedicated team of staff, governors and parents, we take pride in, “Learning and growing together in a love-filled Christian family”.

Year 1 D&T- Remembrance Day
Today in Year 1, we applied our understanding of sliding mechanisms to create beautiful, remembrance-themed moving pictures. As we worked, we reflected on all the soldiers who have sacrificed and continue to sacrifice their lives to protect our country. We also thought carefully about the symbolism of the poppy and what it represents. Well done, Year 1, for your thoughtful work and creativity.
Amazing attendance award!
We are incredibly proud and thrilled to announce a significant achievement for our school family! We have been honoured with a national school attendance award, recognising our placement in the top 10% of all primary schools across England for the 2024/25 academic year. This outstanding accomplishment is a testament to the dedication of our children, the support of our parents and carers, and the hard work of our entire staff. It reflects our collective commitment to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to be in school, learning, and thriving. This success builds upon our previous achievement, where we were recognised for being in the top 25% of primary schools the year before. This consistent improvement demonstrates the positive impact of our ongoing efforts to promote excellent attendance and create an engaging and supportive learning environment for all. We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who has contributed to this remarkable achievement.
