From the Phillimore Community Primary School
Since its establishment in 1924, Phillimore Community Primary School has stood in the centre of a sizable Darnall residential neighbourhood. As a part of the Sheffield South East Trust, Phillimore Community Primary School began operating as an academy on December 1st, 2016. About 480 kids between the ages of 3 and 11 have all of their requirements met by the school. From Foundation Stage through Key Stages One and Two, we use a two-form entry system. Being a multicultural school that represents the rich and diverse people of the neighbourhood makes us really proud. We appreciate each child's uniqueness and passion for learning. Ofsted made the observation as a result that "pupils are courteous and considerate and they respect each other's differences."
