A warm welcome to Francis Askew Primary School
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.

Our Trust includes primary, secondary and an alternative provision school working together to provide the best learning opportunities for the pupils within our network of schools.

Our Early Explorers have had a wonderful time enjoying this week’s Stories for Talking text – Goldilocks and the Three Bears! 🐻
The children have been developing their fine motor skills through activities such as feeding the bears, while also building their communication and language skills as they chatted together around our teddy bears’ picnic. 🧺🍯
It has been lovely to see our little ones learning, exploring and having fun through stories! ❤️ 🐻🤎 ...

One of the most moving moments of our Remembrance Service this morning was hearing Mrs Orr from Hull Music Service play The Last Post live.
It was an incredibly special moment, giving us all the opportunity to pause, reflect and remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
We are so grateful to Mrs Orr for helping to make our service so memorable. It truly made the occasion even more meaningful for our children and staff.
We will remember them.
