Our school is situated in the heart of the city and we are delighted to work with children and families from all over the world. At Spon Gate, we believe that every child has the right to reach their full potential. As a result, we have developed an exciting curriculum and have a team of skilled teachers and support staff to work alongside your child.
We place great emphasis on children being competent readers, writers and mathematicians. Alongside this, we make sure that children have access to a wide range of extra-curricular activities so that they can develop a range of talents. We hope that you find the information on our website useful.
