Thank you for visiting our website.

I am extremely proud to be the Headteacher of Gillas Lane Primary Academy. Gillas Lane Primary Academy is committed to working in partnership with families, governors, local community and external agencies, in order to secure the best education possible for our children regardless of gender, religious beliefs, culture and ability.

As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to know that your child is happy and safe. The education of your child is as important to us as it is to you. We aim to ensure that your child’s time with us is happy and successful, both academically and socially. At Gillas Lane Primary School you will find a welcoming, calm, purposeful environment where everyone is encouraged to do their best, and your child will be valued as an individual.

I would be happy to discuss any questions you have about our school, or pay us a visit and see for yourself what we could offer your child.
