Trust Welcome

At Abbey Multi Academy Trust we are passionate about making a difference to the lives of all our children. They are at the heart of everything we do and we strive to inspire learners and change their lives as a result of our educational provision. We are committed to our Trust vision to work ‘In Partnership to Educate, Nurture and Empower’ our community, so that everyone can flourish and live ‘life in all its fullness’ (John 10:10).

We want all our schools to be the best they can be and for each child to discover the skills, abilities, talents and interests that lie within them as well as giving them safety, security and the skills they will need to be active, responsible citizens and happy, caring adults in the future.  Our aim, quite simply, is to do the very best for children and recognise their individuality and uniqueness.  Childhood is a special and wonderful time and no-one gets a second chance at it.

Manston St James provides children with an inclusive and supportive space to learn and grow. Guided by a motivated staff team and grounded in an ambitious curriculum, children learn to build strong relationships, and develop an outward facing view of the world. The school actively demonstrates a passion for environmental responsibility, providing children with opportunities to become eco-citizens within their communities.

Working alongside the other primary and secondary schools within Abbey Multi Academy Trust, Manston St James is prepared to truly collaborate. All our academies have a desire to question, change and innovate to ensure that what we provide enables our children to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens.
