Welcome children, families and visitors to our school website. I am very proud to be the Headteacher at Prudhoe Castle First School. Our school has a strong family ethos where we work in collaboration with parents to provide the best educational experience, so that all pupils can develop their skills and talents and thrive as individuals. We have high aspirations for all of our pupils and encourage them to have the ambition to be the best that they can be. 

One of the most important decisions parents make is choosing the right school for their child. Children can start their journey at Prudhoe Castle First School from the age of 2 in Little Castle then we have 3 further classes: our Early Years unit consisting of Nursery and Reception, KS1 and KS2.

From their very first day at Prudhoe Castle, children are exposed to a nurturing and caring environment where they feel valued and supported. Our dedicated and talented team is committed to providing high-quality education that supports personal development, character education, a love for learning and fully prepares children for their next stage in education and beyond. We support pupils to reach their academic potential, help each individual to thrive, experience success and be confident and proud of who they are.

Our school values positive relationships between home and school and believe that open communication and collaboration between parents, carers and school staff is vital to the success of our children. 

I hope that you find all the information you need on our website and that it gives you an insight into our wonderful school. If you have any further questions or would like to have a look around, please contact our school office and we will be happy to help in whatever way we can.
