The Firs School is a close-knit community.

Friendly and accessible teaching, office and support staff, visiting music, art and other specialists, a creative catering team and dedicated estates staff share a commitment to the school and the welfare and achievement of its pupils.

Together, they deliver and support a carefully planned curriculum within a superbly resourced environment, ensuring that pupils make the smooth transition to major independent and maintained senior schools.

Parents make a significant contribution to the life of the school, both individually and through an active support group which organises a range of well-attended social and fund-raising activities.
