Welcome
A warm welcome to St Andrew’s Church of England Primary School in Headington. We are a caring, vibrant community that recognises that everyone is different, everyone is special and everyone is our neighbour.
As a Church of England school, we welcome families of all faiths and none to St Andrew’s. Our school life is underpinned by Christian values of hope, friendship, justice, forgiveness and trust.
Our school aims to foster the unique abilities of all our children. SIAMS (2026) noted that 'Pupils at the school are known, valued and cared for as individuals...the school is characterised by harmonious, supportive relationships.'
The curriculum we offer is rich and stimulating and the broad experiences available give every child an opportunity to grow in skills and confidence. This results in outstanding achievements in all aspects of school life as well as a strong sense of community, which extends well beyond the school gates. As the SIAMS report also identified: 'The curriculum and extra-curricular activities at St Andrew’s are rich and inclusive. This means that, pupils, irrespective of learning need or disadvantage, enjoy school and thrive both academically and socially.'
I look forward to welcoming you to St Andrew’s and hope you enjoy looking at our website.
