Welcome to St John's Highbury Vale C of E Primary School
St John's is a Church of England Voluntary-Aided School, which means that the church plays a major role in its management and
day-to-day life. We cater for children between the ages of four and 11.
St John's
is a happy, interesting and stimulating place where children can spend
the early years of their formal education.
We are committed to helping
each child to develop and realise his or her potential.
We value
highly and emphasise our Christian foundation, which permeates all our
activities.
The active support and co-operation of parents is vital in
achieving our aims. Education is very much a partnership between
school and home.
