Sir Francis Drake Primary School

[EduCativ]

Sir Francis Drake Primary School is a small community school for children aged 4-11. We now have two Reception classes and will be expanding to two forms per year over the next few years. We have up to 30 children in each class. We do not have a nursery. We have a fantastic new building and we are all looking forward to the completion of the new playground in December 2017.

We are committed to inspiring our learners to achieve their best in all areas of school life. We are passionate about our learning environment which is safe, innovative, creative, caring, and full of exciting opportunities.
