About our School

Palmerston Primary School aims to provide a stimulating environment where children can reach their full potential in every aspect of development - in physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual and social terms. This is achieved through a fully integrated, well balanced and structured curriculum from which the children can acquire the skills, knowledge, understanding and attitudes to enable them to become responsible members of society and provide them with a sound base on which the secondary school can build.

Palmerston Primary School is in Barry in the Vale of Glamorgan.  There are over 220 pupils on roll aged three to eleven.  The school was founded in 1898 and was situated in Cadoc Crescent until March 1989, when it moved onto its present 
site.  The school has eight classes, most of which are single age classes. In addition, the school has a resource base for children with complex physical and medical disabilities funded by the local authority. These children are fully integrated into all aspects of school life.   There is a therapy room for children where all forms of therapy takes place.

If you are considering sending your children to our school are welcome to visit the Headteacher, by appointment, and if required, arrangements can be made for an extended visit.
