On behalf of all the governors I would like to extend a warm welcome to you and your child to our school.

We realise that starting school is a big step in a child’s life. We hope that this prospectus will answer many of the questions you might have about our academy. Cawston Church of England Primary  Academy has a good reputation in the local community. Our staff work extremely hard to ensure that your child spends a happy and fulfilling seven years with us.

We value the strong supportive partnership between home and school to help each child achieve their best. The Local  Governing Body and the Diocese of Norwich Education Academies Trust are actively involved in school life and we look forward to welcoming you and your child to our school community.
