From the Westfield Primary Academy
Westfield Primary Academy is situated on the edge of a large housing estate made up of mostly local authority housing. In October 2013, Westfield underwent a conversion to become an academy and joined the Unity Schools Partnership. Westfield is lucky to have a lovely location that allows students to study and play well with one another both inside and outside of the classroom. The academy facility offers an excellent learning environment and is custom-designed. Our goal at Westfield is to create a secure, caring environment where every student can develop, learn, and achieve to the best of their abilities. We are extremely proud of our academy and believe it provides an excellent environment in which pupils can grow and learn together in order to achieve to the best of their ability. The greatest way to learn more about Westfield is to take a tour of our academy. Please stop by or make an appointment.
