Meet our Staff
Message from Mrs Sarah Rowe, Headteacher
The Mosley Academy, Anslow is a very special and vibrant place to learn and grow. It is held in high affection by many - pupils, teachers, parents, the village and the local community and we are very proud of our school.
We are a thriving village primary school of 215 children, aged between 4 and 11, who are taught in seven classes. We have seven full-time class teachers, with one working across the Trust as an English secondee, supporting other schools with their English provision. Teaching assistants also support the children's learning and personal development in class. They may also deliver high-quality interventions and timely support to children when needed. At the heart of our considerations are the needs of each individual child.
We have a real focus on supporting our pupils' character development and personal development. Our curriculum is enriched by a variety of opportunities through music, art, drama, literature, visiting authors both in person and online, a wide range of educational visits, concerts, visiting theatre companies and so, so much more. We are very proud of this provision in school.
We want our children to be happy, to enjoy school, to feel safe and to be inspired to achieve the highest outcomes possible, both academically and personally. We value them, we like them, we are interested in them, we talk to them, and they talk to us. They trust us and we enjoy being with them. Their well-being and mental health are so important to us and we offer strong pastoral support to support this area. We have recently been awarded the Platinum OPAL award, which recognises our commitment to and quality of play for all children every lunchtime.
We strongly believe that children deserve to experience a quality childhood, including all the magic and wonder that a happy and memorable childhood should bring. We value our local community and work closely with our parents and families, and with the village in which we live.
If you would like to visit our school or learn some more about the wonderful opportunities that we provide, please don't hesitate to call or email and we will do our best to answer your questions. If you are interested in joining our school, please make contact and request a school tour, so you can see for yourself our lovely school.
Some information about me. I have a strong personal and professional connection with the school that began when I was a pupil in the original school building in the 1980's. Being a child at 'Anslow school' was where my ambition began - in Mrs Baker's class. It was to one day become a teacher at Mosley, when I was a grown up!
In 2003, this dream came true. I was offered my second teaching position of my career at the beloved Mosley, in the original school building. During this time, we moved in to the new school building, creating memories, transitioning to the new facilities, designing our classrooms yet maintaining the warm and positive ethos of the school. After a memorable 9 years at Mosley, my career progressed and, following two headships in other schools, I am finally back at Mosley as the Headteacher.
I am immensely proud to be the Head of such a wonderful school. I am very much looking forward to seeing our school continually develop and continue to be the best school that we can be for children, staff and the community.
Thank you for reading,
Mrs Sarah Rowe
