WELCOME

On behalf of the children, staff and Governors, we would like to welcome you to the Federation of Liss Infant and Junior Schools. As a Federation, we share one Governing Body and an Executive Headteacher and Deputy Headteacher, who both work across the Federation. Whilst we are two distinctive schools, we work closely together as one team to ensure a seamless primary journey for our children.

We nurture a love of life, and mutual respect in an environment where everyone is happy, valued and every voice is heard. We ensure that our children grow socially, emotionally and academically to enable them to become valued and responsible members of the community.

We have high expectations of all our pupils and aim to inspire resilience, independence and a lifelong love of learning through a range of stimulating and challenging learning opportunities including visits, visitors, music tuition and sports coaching.

We strongly believe in working in partnership with parents, the local community, our active PTA and dedicated Governing Body. We listen to and value the views of our families and children.

Both schools are well-resourced and benefit from extensive grounds. The infant school can accommodate 180 pupils in 6 classes and the junior school can accommodate 240 children in 8 classes. We also have  resourced provisions for pupils with moderate learning difficulties at both schools. This provides a specialized educational setting for children placed with us by our local authority from across the locality.

Our designated Safeguarding Lead is Kay Bowen, and our deputy designated Safeguarding leads are Mr Stanley, Mrs Waterman, Mrs Lyon and Miss Zwarts- who is also our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENDCo).

We would encourage you to arrange to come and meet us. We are arranging tours for our new Year R children for 2026, and also have spaces in some other year groups at present.

Mrs Kay Bowen                                                                      Mr Alastair Hutton

Executive Headteacher                                                         Deputy Headteacher
