St James’ C of E Primary School is located in a cul de sac just off Wilmslow Road close to Platt Fields Park and adjacent to the old Hollings Faculty of Manchester Metropolitan University, the famous landmark building known as the Toast Rack.
We currently have 218 pupils on roll and are a one form entry school with a 26 place Nursery class. Our children come from a variety of backgrounds, religions and cultures. More than three quarters of our school population come from ethnic minority backgrounds and the percentage of our pupils who have English as an additional language is well over half the national average.
Our school is a supportive and rewarding place to work. Development for all is highly regarded at St. James’ and we believe strongly in nurturing and supporting staff in the same way that we do the children.
