Our mission statement:
At Birtley East Community Primary School we keep the whole child in mind. Our professional and skilled team work together to develop all children in our care to achieve their full potential. Teaching and learning is shaped by a curriculum designed to meet the needs of our community, including an additional curriculum focus on children’s wellbeing and involvement. Everything we do is underpinned by our supportive, caring and inclusive ethos. 

Birtley East Community Primary School is a popular and growing primary school with a 78 place Nursery provision situated to the north end of Birtley, within sight of the Angel of the North. We were inspected by OfSTED during the summer term of 2019 and continue to be graded as a ‘Good’ school. The full report is available by clicking the link below:

We have extensive grounds and a beautiful, recently refurbished, school building.

At Birtley East we are proud to call ourselves a ‘family school’. Children who attend our school are nurtured and cared for, our aim being to give them the very best start in life.

Visits are very welcome and contact details can be found below.
