STAFF, pupils and parents at Cradley CE Primary School are delighted to have been awarded a Basic Skills Quality Mark Award.

The award is a national accreditation that supports and celebrates progress made by a school in English and maths. To achieve the Quality Mark, the school was visited by an external assesser who looked at factors including strategic planning, targetsetting and support for underachieving pupils.

Headteacher Adam Greaves said: “The award is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of the whole school community, and we are delighted to be recognised in this way.”
