ATHERTON ST. GEORGE'S CE PRIMARY SCHOOL

Derby Street, Atherton, Nr Manchester, M46 OHJ Tel: 01942 883971

Dear Visitor,

I hope that this website helps you to understand what it is that makes St George’s such a great school! It is a place where children achieve their full potential and grow into self-confident and caring members of our community.

We are very proud of our successful record in raising standards in all areas of our children’s learning and development and are particularly proud of our KS2 SAT's results this year:

English: 90% L4+
Maths: 97%  L4+
Science: 97% L4+

 Pupils benefit from committed and experienced staff who provide high quality teaching and learning for the children in our care coupled with small class sizes. All our pupils are well known to staff and to each other and are encouraged to develop self-discipline in their work habits, behaviour and play. As it states in our Ofsted report: “Staff know their pupils well. Pupils feel safe and secure because staff are very caring and sensitive to the needs of the most vulnerable pupils.”

As a Church school we celebrate our Church links with both St George’s and the Parish of Atherton. Regular services are held for pupils in our Church and a fortnightly Eucharist service is held in school.

However, nothing can replace personal contact or seeing the school in action and so therefore, an open invitation is available to everyone to visit at a mutually convenient time to see first hand how the school is entering a new and exciting development in its history with the completion of ‘Phase Four’ of an adventurous programme of new build and refurbishment

Yours Sincerely,

Rachael Coulthard
Headteacher
