Neatishead nestles in the countryside surrounded by agricultural fields and close to the Broads. The school’s earlier logo was that of the swallow tail butterfly. The swallowtail is now limited to the Norfolk Broads, choosing sites with a vigorous growth of milk parsley, where it lays its eggs on the tallest plants. The school, like the swallowtail, is a very special feature of living and learning in this part of the country.
'Staff have high expectations that encourage pupils to think for themselves and reflect deeply about their learning.'

Salhouse has always celebrated its special heritage as a school on the Broads. The school’s earlier logo focussed on the image of a wherry. The wherry has a history that stretches back 400 years and was chosen to symbolise the pride our children have for the area of Norfolk in which they live and learn.
'Pupils are happy and safe at this school. They value the warm relationships that they have with staff. Pupils know that they will be supported if they feel worried. They have trusted adults in school who care for them.'

If you look on the front wall of the school you will see the date when the old school building was erected, 1866. You will also notice a dragon! The school’s earlier logo features the dragon, but why? The school is in the village of Fleggburgh which sits in the parish of Burgh St Margaret. Legend links St Margaret with a dragon in ways we will let you find out for yourself.
'Pupils have a range of high-quality personal development opportunities. Pupils understanding of key issues are deepened by real experiences.'
