Bank End Primary School is a community school in every sense of the word. We proudly sit in the Worsbrough and Kendray locality where we enjoy strong partnerships with Hunningley Primary School and Barnsley Academy, working together as part of United Learning.

Worsbrough Bank End Primary School is a 'can-do' school, where we find ways to help everybody reach their potential, because every person really matters. We believe there are four factors that make a child’s education successful and enable them to achieve the very highest of standards: the best possible care, encouragement, education and outcomes. At Bank End, our team work hard to ensure that everyone makes those four outcomes a reality for our children every single day.

We pride ourselves on a team of staff who are supportive, friendly and dedicated to providing the very best teaching and learning for our students. Staff across the school set a culture of high expectations and continuous improvement for children which, in turn, is reflected in the emphasis we place on continuing professional development (CPD) for our staff.

Worsborough Bank End Primary School is part of United Learning, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.

Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.

As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.
