Welcome to Rakegate Primary School Website. I hope this website will provide you with useful information about our school and the way we work. I am extremely proud to be the Headteacher at Rakegate Primary School. We are a two form entry school with Nursery provision. We aim to provide a friendly, caring environment for your child and a broad and balanced curriculum.
