Peters Hill Primary School, established in 1975, is part of the Dudley Local Authority. Originally a two-form entry, it has grown into the largest primary school in the borough with four forms, serving 840 pupils from Reception to Year 1, plus a Nursery.
Located between Stourbridge and Brierley Hill, the school offers extensive outdoor facilities, including playgrounds, fields, and a 4G floodlit sports pitch. The Nursery, housed in a separate building linked by playgrounds, provides a seamless transition into the main school.
The school employs a large, diverse staff team, including teachers, classroom assistants, and administrative staff. It also collaborates with local providers for music and sports, and offers extensive nurture support. A speech and language assistant aids early language development.
The dedicated Governing body ensures strategic leadership and improvement, focusing on pupil wellbeing and academic success. Partnerships and experiences enhance the school's offerings. Emphasising the values of Ambition, Belief, Compassion, Pride, and Respect, Peters Hill aims to help all children flourish and reach their limitless potential.
