About Our School

Welcome to Dane Bank Primary School!


Our school was opened in September 1966, and then was substantially rebuilt, refurbished and re-equipped after a fire in 1988. It has recently been extensively refurbished (2007/2008), with new windows, doors, corridors and toilets fitted throughout the school and a new Foundation (Nursery and Reception) Unit  built. Consequently it now has seven attractive, well equipped classrooms, a new Foundation Unit housing Nursery and Reception Classes, a purpose built library with very up to date books, a new Community Room for our Extended School Provision, a new Special Needs room for small group work and is situated in spacious grounds, which include a football pitch, netball court and attractive gardens.

Children are admitted into our nursery in the September or January after their third birthday, and we admit children from Tameside, Stockport and Manchester. Applications for school (ie Reception class) are made in the December of the school year in which children turn four. Application forms are available from school to where they should be returned. Parents who are interested in applying for places at school are welcome to look around the school at any time by appointment with the headteacher.
