From the Moss Hey Primary School
It gives me great pleasure to serve as the headteacher of Moss Hey Primary School, a single-form entry school with sizable grounds. Moss Hey is a family, and we are fortunate to have a fantastic team of professionals that collaborate closely with the kids and their parents to make sure that every child receives an exceptional education. At Moss Hey, we take great pride in our innovative curriculum and the Golden Thread values that guide all that we do. Children and adults come together to study, develop skills, and have new experiences. We support one another in making enduring experiences, forming new friendships, and discovering new passions. We know that children learn best from a variety of situations, so learning at Moss Hey happens both inside and outside the classroom. Our enrichment weeks help youngsters acquire the learning habits and abilities they'll need after finishing elementary school. We provide a diverse selection of fun after-school clubs. We want both our faculty and students to be the finest versions of themselves. Whether you are a potential parent, a neighbour, or are considering moving to the neighbourhood, please give us a call. Visitors are always extremely welcome. I'm eager to give you a tour of Moss Hey Primary School.
