Welcome to St Matthew’s Church of England Primary Academy, a warm and welcoming village school at the heart of our local community. We are proud to provide a caring, inclusive and ambitious education where every child is valued as an individual and encouraged to flourish. Our Christian ethos and values of Ready, Respectful and Safe underpin everything we do, helping our children to grow in confidence, develop a love of learning and become thoughtful, resilient and responsible young people. As a newly established school, bringing together the communities of Gayton and Middleton, we are excited about our future and the opportunities ahead for our children, families and community.
