At Francis Askew Primary School we make a positive difference to every child. Working together with parents, families and the community we create a positive, calm and nurturing environment where all members of the school community feel safe, valued and respected.
Our curriculum nurtures curiosity, builds resilience, fosters independence and encourages children to aim high in all that they do. We provide our children with wide ranging, enriching experiences, both in and out of school, and place a high value on developing and nurturing the whole child.
We ensure that children’s individual talents are celebrated and fostered in all areas of school life. We strongly believe in providing a high quality, holistic education, one which inspires a love of learning and equips our children with the skills they need for the future.
Visits to our school are warmly welcomed. We are very proud of our school and the positive difference we make to our children and families. We look forward to welcoming you and your child into our community.
A special message for our wonderful Year 6 children about to take their SATs this week:
Please remember that these tests only show a tiny part of the remarkable young people you are. We have been so impressed by the progress you've all made this year, watching your confidence and maturity flourish. Just do your best; that's all that truly counts, and we know you will.❤️

Today we remember VE Day – Victory in Europe.
On this day in 1945, the war in Europe came to an end and millions across Britain took to the streets in celebration.
We honour the bravery, sacrifice and resilience of all those who served at home and abroad.
We will remember them.

Tonight saw our Year 5s take to the field in the Hull Active Schools Year 5 five-a-side tournament.
The boys made a steady start to the evening, drawing both of their first fixtures 0-0, with battling performances.
The next and third game saw the boys control the football well, creating many chances before Mohammad slotted home from close range to hand the boys a 1-0 win.
With everything still the play for, the boys went into their final league game in high spirits. These were damped slightly as the boys went 1-0 down to a well taken goal. The boys rallied together and soon drew level with a precise finish from Beg to finish the game 1-1 and send the boys through to the semi-finals and hand them a shot at a place on finals night.
The semi-final was a thrilling watch as the boys battled to the very end, with Mohammad (now turned goalkeeper) making some excellent saves. With the game finishing 0-0, the dreaded penalty shootout beckoned. This was were the boys finally succumbed to defeat as they lost the shootout 2-1.
A great night of football and an undefeated streak (until penalties) to be proud of. Well done boys! 👏 ⚽️ 🥅 ... See MoreSee Less
