The Federation of Winklebury Infant and Junior Schools was formed in 2009 and consists of a two-form entry infant school, including a school-based nursery, and a two-form entry junior school, which share the same site. The federation operates under one governing body and one leadership team and has a strong commitment to working collaboratively to provide a continuous learning journey and do the very best for all children. The schools serve a diverse community, with a rich mix of ethnicity, a high proportion of pupils eligible for pupil premium and a high number of children with special educational needs. Everyone in our community is welcomed, valued and respected, and we work hard to ensure that all children, families and staff feel a strong sense of belonging.
