About Glynne Primary School
Glynne Primary School is a Community Primary School, under the control of Dudley Local Authority which caters for children from three to eleven years of age.
Our school has a warm, vibrant atmosphere where purposeful learning takes place. Maths and English are given high priority within a context of a creative curriculum. We are committed to development of the whole child and ensure that sport, music and art are also given high priority; a range of after school activities both sporting and creative ensure a wealth of opportunities for all our children.
Our school ethos is underpinned by Unicef's Rights Respecting Schools ethos, our commitment to which has been recognised by the Level 2 award, and our school motto ‘Aiming High’ reflects our school purpose in aiming to provide the best all round education for your child.
We are very fortunate to have excellent outdoor facilities – substantial school grounds with a large playing field, tyre park and play equipment, several playgrounds, quiet areas and gardens as well as an environmental area and Forest School; indoor facilities include two libraries, an ICT suite and kitchen, two large halls and a separate dining room.
In 2015 we were delighted to receive a £1,000 award from the DfE recognising the achievement and progress of our most disadvantaged children since 2011. We were proud to receive a Pupil Premium Award again in 2016 for being one of the high achieving schools in the country in terms of the attainment and progress of our disadvantaged pupils.
In April 2017 we were pleased to receive a Black Country Primary PE and Sport Premium Award 2017 for ‘Increased Participation in Competitive Sport’ from Black Country Active and we hold Gold in the Sainsbury's School Games awards.
