Queen Victoria Primary School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Queen Victoria Primary School is a community school situated in the town centre of Sedgley, West Midlands which educates children ages 3–11.

The school was built in 1897, and since the reconstruction of Roberts Primary School in 2000 it has been the oldest school building in Sedgley still in use.

In 2004, Queen Victoria was one of the first primary schools to take part in a government-sponsored initiative to extend school hours with additional programs beyond the traditional school day. The program is aimed at making better use of public resources for community benefit.

As of 2006, the head teacher is Mrs. Anna Smith. The average annual enrollment is approximately 700 students. According to a 2003 OFSTED report, the school was rated "very good" in inclusiveness, student attitudes, and health and safety; attendance was the only item rated as unsatisfactory.
