Welcome from Miss Mills

Dear Families

I welcome you warmly to our wonderful Federation which is a union of two, small, rural primary schools in villages that lie on the River Mease. Mary Howard CE Primary School and St. Andrew’s CE Primary School are both church schools that are connected not only by the river but by the ambition they both hold for all the children within the federation.

Mary Howard and St. Andrew’s are thriving, friendly and happy schools, serving the beautiful villages of Edingale and Clifton Campville. We pride ourselves on having strong links with our churches, our local communities and our schools.

Our school curriculum has been carefully crafted around our vision and values and it offers our children a broad, balanced and knowledge-rich education. Our curriculum is real and relevant and encourages Wisdom to navigate life in the 21st Century. Opportunities for enriching our children's learning is carefully planned to ensure that there is a Love of learning. We encourage everyone to persevere and overcome challenges which enables every child to Grow and Flourish in an ever-changing world. We have worked hard to create a curriculum that will have an impact on our children not just in terms of their attainment but as individuals and citizens of the future.

Please have a good look at our website which will provide you with more information and help you to get to know us better. We operate an open-door policy and would love to show you what we have to offer. If you are considering joining us, and you would like to see and hear more, you are most welcome to contact us to arrange a visit to either school.

We look forward to meeting you soon and welcoming you to our Mease Family.
