Macaulay Primary Academy

Macaulay Primary Academy serves the West Marsh area of Grimsby. It is a larger than average primary academy, with 502 pupils currently on roll, ranging from Nursery to Year 6. Macaulay Primary School is a great place to learn and work, for both children and staff alike. Our school motto is ‘Reaching for the Stars’ and we believe that all children, irrespective of their background, can succeed and achieve their ambitions. We provide a happy, caring, safe and stimulating environment where learning is fun and everyone is encouraged to reach their full potential and attaining the highest possible standards is at the heart of all we do. We aim to broaden children’s minds and raise their aspirations.

There is a ‘can do’ approach from both staff and children with everyone working together as one big team, striving to make our school the best that it can be. The culture of the school is one in which staff and pupils are continually learning; work collaboratively and are determined to succeed. The principles of nurturing lie at the heart of our school and drive everything we do.

Our team at Macaulay is one of a large family, where everyone is supported and where we all share the same vision for success. Whilst we firmly believe that every child matters, we also strongly believe that every adult matters too. Our mind-set at Macaulay is one of growth and development of every individual. Staff are coached and developed to feel empowered and make a difference to every child they teach. We strongly believe in high challenge and high support to get us to a greater standard.
