Gamesley Primary School opened as a new school on 1st December 2018 as part of Victorious Academies Trust. Gamesley Early Excellence Centre Nursery has been at the heart of the Gamesley community since it opened nearly 50 years ago. The staff and children of the nursery relocated into the primary school building in the summer of 2023.

The two schools now operate side by side in our primary school building and share the same Headteacher, Special Educational Needs Coordinator and Pastoral Manager. Both schools have been inspected recently and both were graded as “GOOD” in all aspects by Ofsted.

I hope you find this career site useful and informative and that it gives you a flavour of the exciting learning opportunities we provide for all our children at both schools.
