Headteacher’s Welcome
Welcome to our small school making a world of difference!
It is my pleasure and privilege as Headteacher of Twyford St Mary’s to welcome you to our thriving village school. Based in the beautiful village of Twyford we are a Church of England school with strong links to our local church and a Christian ethos reflected in all we do.
Our classrooms are filled with happy children engaged in an exciting and highly enriched curriculum. As a staff, we work hard to ensure that children are given a wide range of experiences in their learning and we aim to develop children so that they feel well-equipped, valued, ambitious, and confident in an ever-changing world. Alongside the core curriculum, we also offer a wide range of opportunities so that every child can find an area in which they flourish. Our Christian values of Courage, Care, Joy, and Respect permeate all that we do and form the bedrock of our school behaviour policy.
Our school motto is Together Everyone Achieves More and at Twyford St Mary’s we do not work in isolation. One of our key strengths is our relationships – with each other, with parents and families, and with the local and wider community. Through all of these partnerships, we support our children to achieve their very best, not just academically, but creatively, socially, physically, morally, and spiritually.
As a school, we never stand still and it is one of our priorities to continue striving to improve, always reflecting on our practice and policies, and keeping up to date with current educational thinking.
I hope our website will give you a real flavour of Twyford St Mary’s. However, nothing can be better than experiencing the real thing, so I would very much encourage you to visit our wonderful school, and see us busy, working hard together to achieve our best.
Yours sincerely,
Neil Tunnicliffe
