Horbury Primary Academy is a large, two-form entry primary school in the heart of Horbury, Wakefield. We are a happy, safe and fun academy and are incredibly proud of our children and the successes they achieve.
We have a highly inclusive ethos and believe that every child can achieve great things. Our staff are kind, caring and highly skilled: they go the ‘extra mile’ to ensure that all children have the opportunity to develop academically, socially and emotionally.
Our ultimate aim is for every child to reach their potential and to create a lifelong love of learning. 'The Horbury Way' gives children not only new skills, knowledge and understanding, but also key learning attributes that will enable them to succeed as they begin their path in life.
