About Us

Wellesley is a small primary school with approximately 210 children on roll. We occupy an extensive site on the edge of a large housing estate in the south of Yate. Wellesley Primary School offers an open, friendly environment where parents, staff and governors work together to give children every opportunity to be confident and happy learners. 

We actively encourage close links with parents to ensure that they are well informed about their child's progress in school. Many parents are actively involved during the school day hearing children read or supporting teachers with activities such as art and design technology.

Parents also support the school by joining the Friends of Wellesley School. This is an active team of parents committed to raising funds to support school projects.

Children join us from a number of preschools in the local area. Most children move on to one of three secondary schools: Brimsham Green, Chipping Sodbury and Yate Academy.
