Welcome to Boothferry Primary

I’d like to welcome you all to Boothferry Primary school.

We are a very friendly school who believe that every child matters.

Boothferry Primary School is a multi-cultural community school that places family at its core.

Our innovative, international curriculum provides opportunity and experiences that enable our children to become ambitious, resilient learners.

All members of our school community aspire to achieve their full potential. This ensures that all children make the best possible progress from their starting points and are supported to achieve high level academic skills.

We recognise and appreciate our responsibilities for ourselves and the wider world.

If you have any questions just ask for me at reception.
