    Welcome to our School

    A very warm welcome to St. James' Church of England Primary School, Lower Darwen.

    My name is Miss Tindall and it is both a privilege and a joy to serve as the Headteacher of this very special school.

    Always enjoy coming to see how my child has fun but also learns at the same time. Always made to feel welcome. Everything was set out clearly marked and good, clear instructions for everyone to understand. Always great to see all the children getting involved and interacting with each other.
