Morley Primary School We are very lucky to have a traditional village school here in Morley, originally a Victorian Board School . The school house was built over a hundred years ago but has been substantially extended and modernised, including the latest technology, to meet modern educational standards. At our most recent inspection (April 2006) the school was judged to be "outstanding" in every one of the seven inspection criteria. Class sizes are small, typically around 20. The school also holds the Basic Skills quality mark, Health Promoting Schools and Derbyshire Anti-bullying Commitment Awards, and received a Special Merit award in the 2006 Rolls-Royce Science prize. There is a vibrant PTA which holds many social events, including the annual Village Show, the Village Walk, a pupils v adults cricket match, Easter and Summer fairs, quizzes and games nights. Morley Village Youth Club and Morley Women's Institute also meet at the school. After school clubs include drama, art and craft, choir, modern languages, a whole range of sports, and a walking/nature club. For further information about the school see the website on www.morley-school.co.uk or telephone the Headteacher, Mrs. Rosemary Pykett, on 01332 831295. You would be very welcome to visit by appointment. |
