About

We are incredibly proud of our North East heritage and the strong sense of community that runs through everything we do. Our dedicated team of staff work tirelessly to provide a safe, supportive and stimulating environment, where children are excited to come to school and inspired to learn.

At Dunn Street Primary School, we believe every child's educational journey is a story of growth, discovery and potential. That journey begins in our nurturing Two-Year-Old Provision, where our youngest learners start as Acorns small, curious and full of possibility.

As children move through school, they grow through each stage of our learning family: Acorns our two-year-olds taking their very first steps into learning Seeds beginning to explore, play and build early foundations Blossoms flourishing as learners, friendships and abilities bloom Magnificent Seven developing greater resilience, responsibility and a stronger sense of self Oaks standing tall as role models, gaining maturity and preparing for the challenges ahead Mighty Oaks strong, confident and ready to move on to secondary school with pride by the time they reach the end of primary school, our pupils have grown into Mighty Oaks strong, capable and ready to face new challenges with resilience and pride.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
