Happy children What Our Parents Say

"The Gleddings felt right from the moment we crossed the threshold, it has felt right ever since and I find it hard to conceive of anywhere that would have suited my daughter quite so well."

Mr Sykes

Welcome to our school Website

The Gleddings is very special. It is precious to several generations of families in this locality and beyond. We are now educating the children of our past pupils. We consider it a great privilege to do so.

My staff and I remember, all of the time, the trust that you, as parents, bestow in us. We promise you our best efforts for your children.

Our academic results speak for themselves but The Gleddings is about much more. Our caring ethos is central to everything we do and our intention is simply

TO MAKE YOUR CHILDREN AS CLEVER AS THEY CAN POSSIBLY BE AND AS NICE AS THEY CAN POSSIBLY BE.
