From the Halifax Primary School
We're delighted to have you visit Halifax Primary School. Halifax Primary is a welcoming, all-inclusive institution. A child's primary school years are a launchpad to their future and we make it our mission to provide tailored learning and challenge backed with a supportive, safe, and caring environment to help each child succeed. Academic success is crucial, but so are the abilities that help the kids become mature, tolerant, resilient adults who set high standards for themselves in everything they do. We provide a variety of trips, clubs, sports and other extracurricular activities to help children experience new things and gain essential life skills leading to a rounded education. We focus on encouraging children to work collaboratively and tailor our curriculum so it is engaging, but most of all we choose topics children can relate to. We are particularly proud of our swimming pool, where children have the opportunity to swim from Reception through to Year 6, and our regular Musical Extravaganza where every pupil in the school is involved in putting on a performance. The school has high standards for our kids' academic performance as well as their conduct and behaviour management. The triangle of pupil, school staff and parent/carer is critical as a young person develops and we look forward to working with you to do the best for your children. Please get in touch with us or visit our website if you want further details or to schedule a meeting.
