Welcome to The Gates Primary School

THE GATES is a very special place where we pride ourselves on providing a school where children feel safe within a happy, stimulating and attractive environment in which each child is encouraged to: enjoy learning, have high expectations of themselves, respect each other and fulfil their true potential. Our amazing children are encouraged to do their best and enter into the spirit of a “can do” culture.
