At St. Peter’s, we are ‘Growing and Learning together’ so we can become strong and dependable, just like the Mustard Seed, Matthew 13:32.
We foster effective working relationships with a number of stakeholders to ensure that all of pupils, parents/carers, staff and Governors are 'Growing' and 'Learning' together.
