Admissions
at Church Drive Primary School

A warm welcome to our wonderful school. Church Drive is a primary school with a big welcome and an even bigger heart.

Children get just one chance with their education and at Church Drive, we want this to be the very best!

My aim as the Headteacher here at Church Drive is to ensure that the children who attend our school are kept sfe and can learn happily, succeeding both academically and socially. I understand that choosing the right school for your child is a big decision and I hope this website gives you an insight into what we can offer. Although we place a great emphasis on continously improving standards within Maths and English, we also aim to develop our children’s wider knowledge and skils through our evolving and broad curriculum. The children at our school are enthusiastic learners and we make activities engaging , challenging and fun!

We pride ourselves on the friendliness of our staff and children and the warmth of our welcome and would value the opportunity to get to know your family. Should you wish to come and see the school for yourself, please call the school office and arrange a visit.
