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.

🎨 Some of our students in Class 18 having been drawing ‘en plein air’, which is a French expression meaning ‘in the open air’. The children created art outdoors by sketching things they could see in nature around our school site. They also created rubbings of different leaves they found. 🍁🍃🌸

Students from Macmillan and Archibald joined schools nationwide in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Associate Schools Programme. This year, they performed Macbeth—a powerful story of ambition and fate—at Playmaking Festivals across the country. The project offered a transformative experience, helping students grow in confidence, creativity, and teamwork while exploring Shakespeare’s work as professional actors do.

🎭 Royal Shakespeare Company Partnership.
We are proud of our partnership with the Royal Shakespeare Company. Throughout school, we use RSC rehearsal room techniques to help pupils explore thoughts and ideas as part of the planning process for fiction and non-fiction writing.
Our pupils study various Shakespeare plays, each year, from Recption through to Year 6 and many of them get opportunities to perform the plays in school and in partnership with other schools and venues in the local area.
Mayomi, in Year 6, has written about his experiences of studying Shakespeare at Archibald and his thoughts have been published in First News. Well done, Mayomi!
