Thank you for taking the time to look at our website and find out more about our amazing school. 

At Rockingham Primary, we are a dedicated, hardworking group of staff who focus on academic excellence and have high expectations of all our children. We provide the very best education which enables the children to become confident and successful individuals through accessing a vast range of exciting opportunities including art, sport and music. 

Rockingham Primary is proud to be part of the David Ross Education Trust. This allows us to benefit from being part of a larger and extremely successful academic organisation and having access to facilities and opportunities beyond our school.  These have included students have performing Shakespeare at the Derngate theatre whilst others have performed in a creative dance festival at The Cube. Many have participated in the Summer Cup with Olympic athletes and the 'Rockingham Voices Choir' have performed at the opening of the Neville Holt Opera House.   

Parents and carers play a very important part of school life, and we value our strong partnership with them to support children throughout their time at Rockingham in helping them achieve their full potential. 

Our Trust values form the foundations of our approach to learning. 

We strive to create an inclusive and safe environment which enables all children to have the courage to access our ambitious curriculum, supporting the children to develop individual aspirations for their future. We achieve this through our four values: aspiration, ambition, courage and respect.  

At Rockingham Primary we value:

•   ASPIRATION - Always aiming high
•   AMBITION - We are the best we can be
•   COURAGE - Nothing holds us back
•   RESPECT - We always lead by example

These values encourage our children to be confident, well-rounded, motivated and respectful citizens of the future. 

Our dedicated team of staff all work hard to make sure that each child’s experience at Rockingham Primary is happy, successful and memorable.
