Elburton Primary is a friendly and welcoming school based on the outskirts of Plymouth. It’s part of the Learning Academies Trust, which means staff benefit from support and training across a wider network of schools.

The leadership team, headed by Mr. Keith Smithers, is approachable and focused on creating a positive environment where both staff and students can thrive. Staff here are supported to grow in their roles and have access to great resources, including modern classrooms, outdoor learning areas, and even a swimming pool!

The school follows the United Learning Curriculum, which is all about helping children develop a deep understanding of what they learn. Values like respect, pride, and ambition are at the heart of everything they do—not just for the children, but for the staff too.

Elburton’s values are at the heart of school life and shape the kind of environment staff and students enjoy every day. These values are:

• Safety – making sure every child and adult feels secure and supported.

• Inspiration – encouraging curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning.

• Pride – celebrating achievements and taking ownership of our efforts.

• Flourishing – helping everyone reach their full potential, both personally and academically.

• Respect – treating others with kindness and valuing everyone’s voice.

Staff at Elburton are part of a close-knit, positive team where relationships matter and where everyone works together to make a difference. If you're looking for a workplace that’s ambitious, nurturing, and full of heart, Elburton Primary is a brilliant place to be.
