Welcome to St John's Primary Academy, Essington.
ST. JOHN'S PRIMARY ACADEMY IS PART OF
A very warm welcome to St John’s Primary Academy.
Here at St John’s, we are very proud of our values, Christian ethos, caring community, children and staff. Together we work hard to provide an exciting and interesting educational experience for all our fantastic children. Our priority is to ensure all children have high expectations of themselves and make the best progress academically they can. Through a rich curriculum, alongside a wide range of enhancements and enrichment opportunities, we aim to ignite curiosity, enthusiasm and a lifelong love of learning.
Our school community is made up of passionate and active participants who work together to prepare our children to be confident, responsible citizens of the world. We believe that success is measured not only academically, but also personally, socially and spiritually. High self-esteem is nurtured, strong values and standards are fostered, and progress and achievement are carefully monitored, celebrated and shared. Recognising each child’s uniqueness and responding to individual needs is central to our work at St John’s.
We champion excellent links with St Johns church where we actively participate in many Christian celebrations throughout the year. We aim to enrich the understanding of our children in being part of a multi-cultural society, celebrating British values, diversity and equality. We value and welcome all faiths and non-faith because we value and respect all God’s children and their families.
We are proud of the strong relationships we share with our pupils, staff, governors, parents, the wider Essington community and the Future Generation Trust. Through effective challenge and support, we work together on our shared journey towards excellence in children’s education, forming an ever‑growing school community focused on helping every child to soar.
Our website will provide you with information about our academy, but please don't hesitate to contact us should you require further information.
