We take the success of each and every child very personally and offer a wide range of opportunities to help them develop as confident members of our school community, who, by year 6, are ready for secondary school. In January 2023, we retained our ‘Good’ Ofsted rating and were praised for being a fully inclusive school where everyone is respected and treated fairly.

As a founding member of Acorn Education Trust in 2014, we work closely with other schools within the Trust to provide the best possible education, opportunities and support. We want our children to remember their years at The Avenue Primary School as having been challenging, but also rewarding, fun and enjoyable.
