Background:
Since Parkfield Primary School opened in September 1986 with three small classes of reception pupils, the school has grown significantly to become a 3 form entry primary school with a 78 part-time place Nursery. The school is located in Saltley, an inner city area of Birmingham, and the majority of pupils speak English as an additional language. Teachers run a variety of extra-curricular clubs for the children including choir, recorder, Islamic studies and homework club. Children also enjoy the football, netball and cricket clubs, and the schools cricket team demonstrated 'kwick-cricket' during the World Cup semi-final at Edgbaston. There are many initiatives to involve parents with the school, which has good community links. The children regularly raise money for Islamic Relief, the NSPCC, the World Wildlife Fund, Acorns Children's Hospice and local elderly people.
