Welcome to Glebe Farm school, a member of the Inspiring Futures through Learning Academy Trust.

I would like to introduce myself as the Headteacher of Glebe Farm School and take this opportunity to extend a very warm welcome to all prospective parents, friends, and families. It is a true privilege to be entrusted with the role of leading a brand-new growing all through school.

My ambition, along with a team of passionate and dedicated staff, is for Glebe Farm School to become the ‘beating heart of our new and developing community’, providing a thriving and happy learning environment where expectations and standards are very high; inspiring and supporting our students so that they seek excellence in all aspects of school life – regardless of gender, race, or background. 

We are committed to working with parents and carers to ensure that all are active participants in their child’s learning journey. We can only be successful with your support.  We recognise and greatly value these relationships including those within the wider community, together we are stronger and can achieve more!

At Glebe Farm School we will develop the characteristics of integrity, responsibility, endeavour, bravery and empathy in our staff, children and young people. These core values will permeate throughout our school, our curriculum, and our community. 

Our commitment to you is to cultivate a love for learning, each student will receive a rich education through a bespoke curriculum that is innovative, creative, and stimulating.

An exciting journey awaits us all. I strongly believe through working effectively together we can achieve greatness.
