Gig Mill Primary School, The Broadway Norton, Stourbridge, DY8 3HL

Gig Mill Primary School is a welcoming, ambitious and nurturing community where children feel valued, supported and inspired to achieve their best. The school’s ethos, “Together we care, together we succeed,” is lived out through strong relationships, high expectations and a focus on wellbeing. In March 2024, the school joined Hales Valley Trust, strengthening collaboration, expertise and opportunities across a wider network committed to excellence.

Set within beautiful grounds enriched with woodland areas and wildlife spaces, Gig Mill offers an inspiring environment where children can explore, think deeply and grow with confidence. Classrooms are bright and engaging, supporting curious and independent learning. The curriculum is ambitious, balancing strong foundations in English and Maths with enriching experiences that broaden children’s understanding of the world and fuel a lifelong love of learning.

A key feature of the school is its on‑site swimming pool, which offers high‑quality swimming provision as part of the curriculum and supports wider physical development and confidence in the water. Gig Mill also hosts a specialist Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Resource Base, providing tailored support, sensory‑friendly spaces and a nurturing environment for pupils who benefit from a more therapeutic setting while still engaging with mainstream learning.

The school’s Early Years provision is another strength, with a well‑resourced on‑site Nursery that gives children an exceptional start. Experienced practitioners work closely with families to build confidence, joy and curiosity from the very beginning, supported by spacious indoor areas and a rich outdoor environment. Together, these features create a school where children thrive and staff feel proud to belong - a community grounded in care, opportunity and a shared belief in every child’s potential.
