Richard Taylor Church of England Primary School is a very special learning community.

We have been meeting the needs of the children in our local community and beyond since 1785 and on our current site since 1973.

We are proud to be an inclusive school that supports a significant number of children with the highest level of need, well above national comparison. In recent years we have been delighted to welcome families from counties across the word including Afghanistan and Hong Kong. These children have thrived in our school, supported by a dedicated staff.

We are determined, even with the current funding crisis, to enrich our curriculum to provide a fully inclusive area for learning outside the classroom, as well as opportunities for all to enjoy music and a well resourced, inviting library environment to support a love of reading for all our children.

All of these projects bring with them significant funding challenges beyond the reach of our central funding.

Our Friends of the School do a wonderful job in fundraising, but we need your help to achieve our goals.

Our current priority is the rejuvenate of our EYFS/KS1 outdoor pay areas which urgently require renovation.

If you are a pupil or parent, past or present and would like to make a donation to help us completely renovate our outdoor learning space please give what you can.

Donations can be made via our just giving page. Thank you for your support.
