Please contact me, Joanna Styles, Headteacher on 01732 354325. Officially, we are a new school because we reopened as part of Connect Schools Academy Trust in July 2019. As a result, we don’t have an Ofsted report. The one that is listed for Cage Green is an old report and no longer represents the school.
