about us

All Saints Church of England Primary School is a voluntary aided co-educational primary day school for pupils aged 5-11 years. Education after 11 is provided at High or Comprehensive Schools. All Saints C.E. School was opened in 1854, under the patronage of the Earl of Dartmouth. Many changes and re-organisations took place during the first century of the schools existence; the final one being during 1969 and 1970 when the Secondary Modern School closed and the Infants and Junior schools were amalgamated to form All Saints Primary School. The re-organised Primary School moved into the present building in 1973. The Head Teacher is responsible to the School Governors. Church of England members who live anywhere within the Borough have the right to send their children to the school on religious grounds.

All Saints School is a Christian school. Children are able to develop their own religious beliefs and grow in their own religious denomination. The Staff, the children, and the parents are as a family, each working to the benefit of one another. How staff approach children and parents, how children react to visitors, how children behave towards each other, reflects the Christian ethos that is to be found in the school.

The family atmosphere created within the school is one that has been developed over many years. New parents soon gain great comfort from this knowing that every care and attention will be given to their children’s education and pastoral care. It is the present policy of the Sandwell Education Authority to admit Sandwell children at or near the beginning of the school year in which they have their fifth birthday, provided a school place is available. Parents are always welcome to visit the school, and should contact the Head Teacher in order to make an appointment to discuss admission arrangements.
