William Booth is an average sized, thriving 210 primary school with a 60 place Nursery, very close to the city centre.  The school is set on a fairly large site and considerable efforts have gone into making the most of the site to provide our children with an appropriate and stimulating outdoor environment.  

William Booth Primary and Nursery School was built in 1969 and has since undergone many changes as the school has changed from an Infant to a full Primary School.  It has 6 classrooms; a Foundation Stage Unit; a meeting room; work space area and a comfortable large staffroom.

Visitors to the school always talk very enthusiastically about the quality of the learning environment and the highly tangible warm, inviting and positive ethos. A quote from one of our visitors encapsulates William Booth very well:

“There is something special about the place the moment you step through the door. It is a haven for everyone in the middle of a very busy City”. 

The school was last inspected by OFSTED in January 2014. 

Some of the main findings were that:-

• The school is a GOOD school.
• Standards are rising rapidly and pupils are making good progress in all age groups.
• Carefully considered support for all pupils helps them to improve quickly.
• Behaviour is good throughout the school and lessons are interesting.
• Teaching is good and outstanding and staff work very closely together.
• Pupils enjoy a wide range of subjects and the rich mix of after-school activities.
• Parents strongly agree that the school is led and managed well. The school is a member of the Transform Teaching Alliance and is currently going through a process to join Transform Academy Trust.  Both of which provide great partnership opportunities and some fantastic CPD.  

Governors recognise that the members of staff are the most valuable asset of any school. They have, therefore, ensured that everything is done to enable staff to give their best to the children and to each other. Time, resources, support and continuous professional development are high on our list of priorities. We feel it is by encouraging and valuing staff that a shared ethos and strong team spirit is developed.  Staff really do love working at William Booth and work hard to have excellent relationships.
