Our aim is to make our school the heart of the Kirkley community, providing a high quality education enabling our children to develop as independent, caring and responsible citizens. We provide a very rich and exciting curriculum through subject and topic work, encouraging pupils to develop enquiring minds.

Red Oak Primary School and The Active Learning Trust are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people. We expect all staff to actively share this commitment. All adults working in our Trust in whatever capacity will be part of a thorough safer recruitment process. All appointments will be subject pre-employment checks including the taking of satisfactory references and enhanced criminal record clearance in line with the need to create and maintain a safe culture.
