Church School Inspections

We are very proud of our SIAMS report which notes that:

The distinctiveness and effectiveness of Calder Vale St. John’s as a Church of England school are outstanding

The mission statement ‘Grow, Achieve, Explore’ and Christian values are central to all aspects of school life and ensure that each child is able to flourish and reach their potential.
Worship inspires and embraces the whole community and provides a daily opportunity for pupils to pray, praise, reflect and learn more about the Christian faith through Bible stories and the Christian values which are fundamental to the school.
The inspiring leadership of the headteacher, based on a strong Christian vision is very well supported by staff, governors and parents ensuring a clear partnership and commitment to school improvement.
Spiritual, moral and social development is outstanding and provides the pupils with self confidence and motivation to make a difference to others locally, nationally and internationally.
