Barley Fields Primary School – Cleaner

Barley Fields Primary is a school with over 600 highly motivated and well-behaved pupils on roll, based in Stockton. The school has been part of Prince Regent Street Trust since academising in 2023.

At Barley Fields Primary School, we are a family: a family built on positive relationships between school, children, parents/carers, governors, the local community and the wider world. We aim to create a warm, safe and happy environment, where children feel valued and inspired to learn. We safeguard the needs of all children and promote their mental health and emotional wellbeing. We nurture self-respect, courtesy, good manners and a caring attitude and we encourage all of our children and families to celebrate and value diversity and difference.

We believe in high standards of education and behaviour. We offer high standards of teaching and strive to achieve excellence in all aspects of school life. We are deeply committed to working with parents to help children achieve to the best of their ability and seek to work in partnership from the very beginning of your child’s time here.

Classrooms are grouped around four central shared areas, each providing a working base for children in the Early Years, Key Stage One, Lower Key Stage Two and Upper Key Stage Two. We also have an IT Suite, Library Area and Therapy Area. We have a dining hall adjacent to the school kitchen and a large school hall available for P.E., assemblies and out of hour’s activities.

Externally we have a large school field, Forest School, MUGA, hard playing surfaces and adequately grassed areas for general play at break and lunchtimes. We have a separate Early Years play area and garden. The site is completely fenced providing secure grounds for the children. Our Nursery is an integral part of the school but is accessible separately from the main building.
