At the heart of all we do lies a deep commitment to our school family, flourishing and learning together through all Jesus' teaching. Everyone belongs and we encourage each other to be our best, in a respectful, safe, nurturing and creative environment. Through friendship and God's love, we give each other hope and the courage to succeed. This is a place where we can be our unique selves and serve as a beacon of light to all our community. Following in the footsteps of Christ, we live our lives through our values of respect, kindness, responsibility and hope. "You are the light that gives light to the world." Matthew 5:14
Rooted in our Christian ethos, we teach optimism and faith. Even in challenge, children look ahead with confidence.
Respect guides all we do. We value everyone, promoting understanding and care so all feel seen and included.
Small acts of kindness help us create a happy, welcoming school where everyone feels valued.
Being responsible helps us learn, grow, and support others, building confidence and independence.

“We wanted to give our 'host' Lucy a massive thank you and well done. She showed us all around the school and interacted with our little girl which made her feel even more comfortable and she's not stopped talking about Lucy since we got home. A massive credit to the school and Lucy's parents she was so brave taking us round and was so polite. Our little girl will look forward to coming to St. John's. Thank you”
“I would recommend this school wholeheartedly. Leaders have high expectations, and my child is doing well across subjects with lots of extra‑curricular activities to enrich their experience.”
“Leaders and staff show genuine commitment to every child’s personal development. Pupils feel respected, behaviour is consistently positive, and communication with parents is clear and welcoming.”
“Our child feels safe at school every day. Behaviour is well managed and a friendly community atmosphere helps pupils feel secure and supported in their learning.”

Every year during Lent, we raise money for a chosen charity. This year, our appeal is especially close to our hearts. One of our families is facing unimaginable heartbreak as their young son, Reggie, has been diagnosed with Leukaemia and is currently undergoing treatment at Alder Hey Children's Hospital. Despite everything, Reggie is responding well to treatment, showing incredible strength and keeping a big, beautiful smile on his face. In support of the Richmond family during this extremely difficult time, we chose to raise funds for two charities that are providing them with essential support: Milly's Smiles and CHICS. Yesterday, Chem from CHICS came in to school where he was presented with a cheque for his fabulous charity. The total amount raised was £1646.95 which will be split between the 2 charities.
Key stage 1 enjoyed a trip to Kenyon Hall Farm on the last day of term as part of our science learning , plants. We got to have a walking tour of the agricultural farm, a tractor ride and plant our own seed to take home! We had a glorious time in the sunshine ! #QUESTtrust #StJohnsAbram

Year 6 have had a very busy and exciting couple of days. We have taken part in road safety and first aid sessions, which provided the children with valuable life skills and helped prepare them for the transition to high school. Alongside this, we have been working incredibly hard rehearsing for our end-of-year performance. The children have shown great enthusiasm and dedication, and we are looking forward to sharing this very soon. #QUESTtrust #StJohnsAbram
