Denaby Main Primary Academy is a vibrant and inclusive school where children are supported to achieve their best in all areas of learning. We are proud to be part of the Astrea Academy Trust, which supports our mission to provide every child with the opportunity to succeed through ambition, curiosity and care.
Our school offers a rich, broad curriculum that includes outdoor learning, themed weeks and opportunities for pupil leadership. We believe learning should be engaging, meaningful and fun. We focus on helping children to develop not only their knowledge and skills, but also their confidence and character.
We place great importance on positive relationships and strong values, creating a school culture built on respect, kindness and teamwork. Children at Denaby Main are encouraged to be independent thinkers, responsible citizens and proud of who they are.
We welcome families into school life and work in close partnership to support every child’s journey.
Denaby Main Primary Academy is located in Denaby Main, within Doncaster, in the county of South Yorkshire, close to Barnsley and Rotherham. We currently have 7 classes of children across the school with children aged between 3 and 11 years.
We are a small and friendly, family school committed to giving all children the best possible education and care so that they make a successful start on their learning journey.
At Denaby Main, we provide a curriculum which is both educational and engaging for our children. We believe that all children should have access to as many opportunities as possible to enhance their learning experience, so that they develop a broad knowledge and understanding of the world and their role within it. We encourage our children to develop independence and resilience and to have high aspirations for themselves.
At Denaby Main, our talented and committed staff team recognise that all children are different and that there are many factors that influence achievement and attainment. We are committed to ensuring that every child gets the best support we can offer in order to help them to enjoy their learning, feel confident and happy and make the best progress possible.
We are proud to be a part of Astrea Academy Trust.
