Somers Park Primary School has grown significantly over recent years following the construction in 2018 of the Malvern Vale satellite expansion site less than a mile from Somers Park. Our two sites work very much as one, with teachers working together and children learning the same curriculum.

We have the best of both worlds - fantastic modern facilities with a small school feel at the Malvern Vale site where we have 7 classes, accompanied by our Somers Park site, which has an established, forward-thinking culture, demonstrating proven success over several years, with 16 classes including 2 nursery settings.

Our local community consists of many long-term residents and there are strong family connections within the school. It is not unusual for parents, grandparents and even great-grandparents of pupils to have attended Somers Park. 

We are proud of the way our learners are prepared for the next phase of their education and beyond. Our Think. Know. Explain. Do. curriculum model encourages inquisitive thinking and independent learning. The curriculum is enhanced by a balanced and interesting enrichment programme of additional experiences and visits.
