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.

We offer flexible wraparound care to support families and provide a safe, welcoming environment for children before and after the school day. Our breakfast and after-school clubs are run by experienced staff and open to all pupils.

At Birley Primary Academy our main hall and dining room are available for hire throughout the year.
Yesterday, our Year 5 pupils had an unforgettable experience with Mr Egypt! 🤩
They spent the day diving deeper into the fascinating world of Ancient Egypt, learning from a true expert whose knowledge brought history to life. The children had the incredible opportunity to handle priceless artefacts that are thousands of years old – an experience they will never forget!
One of the highlights of the day was seeing an ancient coin that was once handled by Alexander the Great himself. What an amazing connection to history! 🏺✨
A truly inspiring and memorable day for all – well done, Year 5! 👏

We are incredibly proud of Daisy, our Pupil Parliament representative, who recently prepared and delivered a speech to fellow pupils from across the LEAD Academy Trust, sharing how we encourage our children to flourish and thrive.
Daisy worked extremely hard alongside the School Council, delivering presentations to classes across the academy to gather pupils’ views. She then carefully analysed the responses and used this information to write a thoughtful and engaging speech that truly reflected the voice of our children.
Daisy, you did an amazing job! You spoke with such confidence and represented our school brilliantly – we are all very proud of you.

Today we supported Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day by inviting children to wear red and bring in a voluntary donation of £1 to support this fantastic charity.
We are delighted to share that we have raised an amazing £320.80! This will go towards helping people access food, shelter, and safety – the vital essentials everyone needs to survive.
A huge thank you to everyone who took part and contributed to making a difference! ❤️
