Welcome to Mayfield Primary School – a school truly in the heart of our community that we are all exceptionally proud to be part of. Mayfield Primary School has been a key part of our community for 70 years and it is so important to us that we continue to build on our history and our legacy, and provide a school of choice in our local community and beyond.
Our school had a wonderful £3.3m expansion in 2021, to convert Mayfield into a two-form entry school, providing much needed additional places in the local area. Our aim is to ensure more children in the area are able to access high-quality education and provision, and provide more choice for parents / carers.
