Living as children of light

Welcome to

​​​​​​​South Darley C.E. Primary​​​​​​​ School

Welcome to our school website.  It has been designed to be useful and informative, whether you are an existing parent or pupil, or if you are looking to join our school community.

Choosing the right school for your child is a vital first step on the educational ladder. South Darley Primary School is different.

We are small enough to care, big enough to ensure excellence in education. We enjoy a unique and beautiful setting, and we place a strong emphasis on good behaviour and on establishing the fundamentals of learning.

If you think your child would benefit from what we can offer, please contact me or even better come and see us. You will see that we really do have a beautiful school waiting for your child.
