We are a happy andΒ positive educational setting where diversity is truly celebrated. This school is a special place where we are very ambitious for all of our pupils.Β We have a team of talented, hardworking and committed staff who are dedicated to doing the very best for all children.

Our parents and carers are more than welcome to speak to any member of the Senior Leadership Team or any member of our Safeguarding and Inclusion team should they have any questions or concerns through calling the office, who will happily arrange this.Β Alternatively, you can email any enquiries toΒ enquiries@birleyprimaryacademy.co.ukΒ and this will be forwarded to the relevant personnel.

Alternatively, if you are considering choosing Birley Primary Academy to be the right setting for your child’s education, you are more than welcome to take the opportunity to visit us and experience the inspiring and positive atmosphere here for yourself. Just call the office to make an appointment and a member of our team would be delighted to show you around.

What a wonderful way to end our first half term with our annual Haunted Halloween Hike! πŸ•·οΈ

A huge well done to all our children, families and staff who helped make the event such a success. What a fantastic time was had by all! Thank you for your continued support in helping us make Birley an even better place to learn. πŸ’™πŸŽƒ

We are incredibly excited to see their creativity, historical knowledge and writing skills come together to produce something truly special. We can't wait to share the finished book with you all when the time comes! 🀩
