We have a national research school, which aims to build and strengthen networks of schools throughout the region and help them access effective education research and implement it in everyday practice.

At West Walker Primary School our dedicated and caring staff work hard to meet the needs of every child, providing a safe, secure and stimulating environment. We are committed to developing positive relationships between children, staff, parents and the wider community.

In return we offer:
  • Great opportunities for continuing professional development and a career pathway across the trust.
