From the School
Being the headteacher of this well-liked and prosperous school and working with a committed staff and enthusiastic, animated students makes me proud. In addition to having close ties to Christ Church and neighbourhood mosques, we collaborate closely with parents, school governors, and the local community. We therefore strive to offer a fulfilling educational experience in a courteous and secure setting. We work hard to deliver a motivating, diverse curriculum that fosters a love of learning. How can someone have the love of God if they have worldly riches and see a brother or sister in need but show no compassion for them? Let's show our love by deeds and truth rather than words or speech. (1 John 3:16-18). As a Christian institution, we work to foster in each member of the St. Matthew's family a deep, enduring relationship with God as well as strong spiritual and moral principles. I've come so people can live their lives to the fullest. (John 10:10). We want our kids to grow up to be happy, self-sufficient people who realise their potential and take pride in their accomplishments. Let Christ Jesus be the foundation upon which you build your lives. Then, as your faith in the doctrine you were taught deepens, you will be overflowing with gratitude. (Colossians 2:1–6.) We want to create self-assured, compassionate people who are ready to live fulfilling lives. Our website is designed to be as user-friendly as possible giving easy-to-access information for parents, governors, staff and children. Hope you enjoy it! If you would like a paper copy of any information on this website, please contact the school office.
