St Andrew's CE Primary School is a one and a half form entry primary school and received a good grading by Ofsted in January 2020 which was a testament to the improvements the school had made. However, we are a school which is constantly seeking to improve and wish to ensure that it continues to make a difference to pupils' lives. The school is developing a vibrant curriculum so that children leave school with a passion for learning, already having a secure and wide knowledge base and skills which will equip them for the next phase of their education, as well as life.

We are proud of our church school ethos and our partnership with the local churches. Our Christian vision has driven much of our work. We value our partnership with our local community and parents and a look on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com /standrewswey/ will show how important this is to the school.

We genuinely value the positive contribution of every member of our team, provide extensive continuing professional development and are keen to welcome other like-minded staff. We are part of the Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust and work collaboratively to achieve the best outcomes for all children in the Trust.
