Join Us
We are delighted that you are considering joining our school community.
The children of Ravenfield Primary Academy are confident, articulate, and aspire to great things. Through our exciting curriculum, we grow and nurture their interests and talents so they become the best versions of themselves.
“Wider opportunities enhance the curriculum and provide pupils with a chance to discover new interests.”
Situated in a wonderful rural location with spectacular views across Rotherham and Barnsley to the Moors beyond, Ravenfield Primary Academy is an idyllic place for your child to learn and grow.
Building Great Little People
We work with parents and carers to help our children grow into brilliant young adults. By building our Core Learning Characteristics into the curriculum, we teach children the life skills they will need as they grow.
At our school, we foster a culture of encouragement, support, and recognition for students who exhibit our Core Learning
Characteristics. This approach ensures that your child will be well-prepared to transition to secondary education upon completion of Year 6.

- Teacher led provision every day, ensuring the very best experience for every child
