About Tranmere Park Primary School
Tranmere Park Primary School is set within attractive grounds, away from busy traffic, and has excellent facilities which are used by the children throughout the year. The school was built in 1970 catering for six classes of children, two further classrooms were added in 2000 and a purpose built Foundation Stage Unit with two additional classrooms was completed in 2009. In 2015 the former school bungalow was fully refitted as a classroom and is currently home to the headquarters of the Noctua Teaching School Alliance. We now have twelve classes in total.
There are three playground areas within the school grounds. These areas provide open spaces for children to play during break times and lunchtimes and are well utilised for PE lessons and after school clubs. We have developed a range of features on each playground, including play equipment, designated ball games areas, a trim trail, a climbing wall, a storytelling circle and quiet areas for children who want to sit and talk or read a book. Shaded areas are available in all playgrounds. Within the grounds, we have developed school gardens, including a sensory garden and allotment areas which are well maintained by our fantastic gardening club.
In addition to the attractive outdoor environment, the school has a range of IT resources to offer pupils. Every classroom has an interactive whiteboard which are well used by teachers and pupils to enhance teaching and learning. Every classroom is equipped with a mini suite of computers. We also have a dedicated IT suite, which was redesigned in October 2016 as part of a project funded by Dulux, where children are encouraged to develop their skills and use the computers to support other areas of learning.
