Our school

Our new school building has a main school hall which can accommodate all our 600 pupils and 75-strong staff team with ease, or be sectioned into smaller learning environments.

The building has 28 classrooms, large themed open learning areas, library and a music suite with full stage lighting facilities.

Technology is an integral part of learning within the school. We have invested in high quality, educationally-effective ICT within the school which is entirely wireless.

We encourage active, healthy living. The new school boasts a dedicated soft play space for reception classes, a covered outdoor recreation area, full size netball court with bench seating, football pens and a traversing wall.

We embrace green living and thinking at West Jesmond Primary. Our new school has been designed and built to be energy efficient and sustainable. It is fitted with energy saving devices and measures including a biomass boiler which uses wood pellets.

Thank you to our architect Simon Hatcher of Parsons Brinckerhoff and our construction partner Sir Robert McAlpine for making our school dream a reality.
