From the Graham James Primary Academy
Welcome to our website. I sincerely hope you find it helpful and that you will be able to learn more about Graham James Primary Academy and some of the amazing aspects that make it such a lovely place to be. In September 2007, I was appointed the school's headteacher. I was able to tell this was the location for me from my very first visit. We work together as a staff team to make sure that the journey through our school is a pleasant one, where children are encouraged to be the best they can be and develop a love for learning. We are all passionate about our kids and our community. We all want kids who care about both their education and the people around them. All of our students and future generations should leave our school ready to take the next steps toward their futures in our society and on the path to realising their aspirations and objectives. The Parents and Carers collaborate to further the family culture of which we are so proud. They support their children and the school. Everyone who comes to visit us remarks on the warm and inviting atmosphere they experience as they look around and interact with our children, who are respectful, well-behaved, and a credit to us. I therefore hope that as you browse our website, you will start to understand what makes Graham James Primary Academy so unique.
