Ofsted said: "There is a shared sense of pride about being part of 'Team Rowner'. Leaders combine a strong sense of nurture with high expectations for pupils… Pupils behave well and work hard. Pupils feel safe and happy."

And one parent told us: "Rowner is one of the most caring and nurturing schools I know. The children are at the centre of everything they do… It is more a way of life than a school."

Our values of Honesty, Faith and Courage are at the heart of everything we do. We are ambitious for every pupil, and creativity, ambition and care go hand in hand here.
