Albany Primary School

All pupils should enjoy school life. It is our intention to create a very happy 'family school' where there is a sense of purpose and well-being, a place where children and adults are glad to be. Good behaviour is looked for, acknowledged and rewarded. Our intention is to develop a positive attitude to learning by consistently focusing on the child's strengths and achievements. We work with our community and beyond to ensure our pupils have a range of exciting learning experiences. We work hard to continue to develop the learning environments in our school to ensure we can provide the best learning experiences for our pupils. We welcome would encourage any families looking for a school to pop in and see what we have to offer at Albany.
