From the St Blaise CofE Primary School
Our name comes from our strong ties to Milton's St. Blaise Church.
We are a school under the supervision of the Church of England (C of E).
In other words, the local education authority "controls" us, while the diocese, or church, "helps" us.
If and when the Governing Body considers changing the status of the school, we'll keep you updated.
Our entry hall's cross serves as a reminder of our Christian character.
The needs of each student are met via careful planning and differentiation. *
Through field trips, visits, and outdoor learning, teachers give students access to a wide range of educational experiences.
Every child and their family are known to and understood by the headteacher and staff.
The team members cooperate to preserve the excellent health and safety audit that was reached in December 2012. *
Gain a sense of pride in and connection to the entire community.
Pupil voice and reflection are included into all facets of education, and children are consulted on all matters related to education.
We collaborate with Milton churches to offer a variety of opportunities for our students to practise their faith in the neighbourhood.
We think that people should use their skills for the benefit of everyone.
I appreciate the opportunity to learn at Saint Blaise.
