iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).Allens Croft Primary is a friendly, vibrant and exciting school in the heart of Kings Heath, Birmingham. We currently have approximately 420 children on roll. We are a popular two-form entry primary school and a 36 place Resource Base.
Our children have access to brilliant teaching and a wealth of fantastic experiences from the moment they start in Reception to when they leave us in Year 6, ready to start the next chapter of their education. As educators, we have the best role in the world.
We have a responsibility to ensure that the children in our care are not only safe, happy and learning at school, but are equipped to leave here and face the challenges of the modern world outside of the school gates.
We want our children to be proud of where they come from, to be able to voice their opinions, while listening and accepting that others may be different, to be respectful, courteous and curious.
