Enjoy a guided tour, learn about our curriculum and talk to teachers and staff.
I would like to take this opportunity to warmly welcome you to our website, where you will find information about our academy and be able to see the wonderful events and work taking place at Birley.
I am enormously proud to be the Headteacher at Birley Primary Academy. We are a mainstream three-form primary school – situated in south-east Sheffield – that is committed to inclusive education and meeting the needs of all the children in our care.
We are a happy and positive educational setting where diversity is truly celebrated. This school is a special place where we are very ambitious for all of our pupils. We have a team of talented, hardworking and committed staff who are dedicated to doing the very best for all children.
Our parents and carers are more than welcome to speak to any member of the Senior Leadership Team or any member of our Safeguarding and Inclusion team should they have any questions or concerns through calling the office, who will happily arrange this. Alternatively, you can email any enquiries to enquiries@birleyprimaryacademy.co.uk and this will be forwarded to the relevant personnel.
Alternatively, if you are considering choosing Birley Primary Academy to be the right setting for your child’s education, you are more than welcome to take the opportunity to visit us and experience the inspiring and positive atmosphere here for yourself. Just call the office to make an appointment and a member of our team would be delighted to show you around.
Regards,
Dawn McAughey
