At Roundswell Community Primary Academy, we strive to provide a caring but disciplined environment in which your child will fulfil their potential and develop a positive attitude to learning. We provide a broad, balanced and challenging curriculum, as well as many extra-curricular opportunities. Each child is unique and our aim is that the school recognises this through the many opportunities that are available to children both inside and outside the classroom.

Academic, sporting and artistic performance are important, but just as important are the values that go with it. We aim to be a highly inclusive school, which seeks to promote good manners and a consideration and understanding of others within the locality and the wider world.

With an internationally minded curriculum and a vision to deliver outstanding education, the Roundswell Community Primary Academy introduces children to a world of opportunity. Through engaging pupils in a modern, exciting, internationally-minded curriculum, Roundswell Community Primary Academy enables children to have a modern outlook on the world, achieve high standards of learning and be secondary-ready.
