Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. We hope you find it a useful source of information and that it gives a good insight into our busy and friendly school.
Archibald Primary School, part of Endeavour Academies, is proud to be an inclusive place for children to learn.
Pupils in our school come from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures to share new experiences and learn from each other. Our aim is that all of our children feel welcomed, happy and fulfilled; recognising that they are all different and that these differences create opportunities for adults and children alike to learn more about themselves and each other.
Follow us on our social media to stay up to date with all the exciting things that are going on within our school.

🇬🇧 Last week was our Democracy Week.
In addition to learning about many aspects of democracy, pupils in Reception to Y5 participated in our annual School Council Elections. Supported by exisiting members of our School Council, pupils voted for who they would like to represent them on our School Council next year.
🗳️ Each candidate produced a poster and a short information video to share their thoughts and ideas to persuade voters to vote for them.
🏆 The successful candidates were announced in our Democracy Week Assembly on Friday morning. Congratulations to the successful candidates!

🗳️ This week is Democracy Week. Democracy Week is part of our curriculum work focussing on British Values. 🇬🇧
Throughout the week, pupils will learn all about what it means to live in a democracy.
Some of the key questions for the week are:
•What is Democracy?
•Who can vote and how do we vote?
•Has everyone always been able to vote?
•What is Parliament and where is it?
•Who is in charge of the country and what role does King Charles play?
•What is the Magna Carta and why is it still important today?
•What do MPs do and how do you become an MP?
🪪 In preparation for School Council elections later this week, pupils made an identity card which means they will be able to cast their votes on election day: Wednesday 13th May.
The results of the election will be announced in a special assembly on Friday morning where we will celebrate the new school councillors!
