Welcome to Pakefield Primary School
Welcome to Pakefield Primary School.
I am very proud to be the Executive Headteacher of such a wonderful school, with hard working children, dedicated staff and a shared love of learning. As a learning community, children and adults are inspired and challenged as they gain a deeper understanding of the world around them as well as key concepts to build knowledge upon.
