A Warm Welcome to Darkley Primary School

Welcome to our school website. I invite you to explore and take time to learn more about our wonderful school which we are all very proud of. Our website aims to keep pupils and parents fully informed of school life, as well as providing visitors a flavour of the rich learning experiences we provide. Our school is situated in the heart of the Darkley community, an area of great history and beauty. We are a family school, that cares deeply about the well being and education of every child within our care. Our staff work extremely hard to provide an inclusive, supportive and happy school, where pupils feel safe and challenged to "Bring out the Best" in themselves.

I hope you enjoy our website. Best wishes,

Mr Monaghan

Principal
