Inclusion Team
At school I was unsure about what I wanted to do but from the moment I greeted my first class I knew that I had found my dream job, teaching!
I believe that as a teacher working at St John's I am privileged to have the opportunity to work with wonderful children, families and professionals. I am passionate about providing the very best educational opportunities for every child and instilling a love of life long learning.
Mrs S Walton
SENCO
It is such a privilege to support children and families here at St Johns, alongside teaching teams and leadership who are so passionate about our children achieving their full potential. A year 6 girl once called me her school Mum; this stays with me when I support and empower children to problem solve and be the best version of themselves they can be - I feel so fortunate that I can extend my support to our families. The diversity of people's different backgrounds and circumstances are appreciated and positively valued; it makes for everyday being a learning day.
Mrs E Richardon
Family Liaison Worker
Initially after leaving school, my career was very different to where I am very privileged to be working now. My work has always incorporated both listening and communicating with a vast range of people, which has underpinned my values of reciprocity, resilience and trust. In 2011, through the love and interest of my own three children, I started my career within the school environment. My enthusiasm for my role has encouraged me to continuously professionally develop myself and has enabled me to work at St John's within a friendly team; who are dedicated to ensuring that the pupils of St John's receive both the best academic and pastoral opportunities.

Thrive Practioner
I started my St John’s journey as a volunteer that would read with the children. At the end of the day, I would always go home with a smile on my face knowing that I had made a positive difference. So when the opportunity rose for me to complete an apprenticeship at St John’s, it was the easiest decision I have ever made! I feel immensely lucky to be part of such a lovely community, and I absolutely love sharing my love of education with our fantastic young people!
