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.
