Welcome to Penny Bridge CE Academy From our Headteacher
I am very happy to introduce myself as the Headteacher of Penny Bridge CE Academy. We are a happy, well motivated and hard working staff who provide a fun, stimulating and nurturing environment in which every child can succeed and fulfil their potential.
I hope our website gives you an insight into our school but we believe the best way to find out all about us is to visit and see all the things we have to offer.
