We currently have 290 pupils on roll, organised into 10 classes. Each class is named after a lake, mere or tarn from the Lake District. This not only celebrates our close connection to this beautiful part of the world, but also inspires our children to learn more about the landscapes around us. It reflects our school vision too, reaching out, supporting one another and playing our part in the wider world.
