We are thrilled to have received the Equalities Gold Award.

Welcome to our diverse, exciting school. We pride ourselves on our values of honesty, respect, teamwork and equality, and welcome those who wish to share these with us. Our curriculum is planned around our drivers of inclusion, inspiration and aspiration. When you come to Ferndale, you will not only see our excellent facilities and our environment, but will feel the family atmosphere that strives for the best in everyone.

We would encourage you to view the site video on this page, as filmed from a drone, along with the powerpoint of how we supported our families and learning during the pandemic. Prospective new parents and children are welcome to visit the school (risk assessments permitting) at any time, to give you an insight into life at Ferndale Primary School.

Through the dedication of our staff, a carefully structured curriculum and close monitoring of performance and standards, we help everyone to aim for excellence. We appreciate and value the involvement of parents in their child’s education at home and in school. Parents are welcome in school at any time to discuss their child’s progress. We ask parents to support us in our vision, which places the child at the centre of all we do

Operation Encompass is the early reporting on to schools that a child or young person has been exposed to domestic abuse.

The school has been given the opportunity to take part in a project that will be run jointly between schools and West Midlands Police. Operation Encompass is reporting to schools, prior to the start of the next school day, when a child or young person has been exposed to, or involved in, any domestic incident.
