‘Proud to be PRIMET’

As part of Pendle Education Trust, a multi-academy trust sponsored by Nelson and Colne College, we strive to provide our students with the very best educational start in life. We have the very highest expectations and aspirations for our students, and always ensure that they have the support to achieve their goals.







Learning and progress are at the heart of everything we do. We strive to constanstly develop our knowledge and skills, ensuring that every day we move forwards.
We are respectful to ourselves, always aiming for our best and making the most of all our opportunities. We are respectful to others, being kind with our actions and words. And we are respectful to our environment, at a local, national and global level.
All members of the academy are equally valued, and we appreciate the diversity within our academy community. Our curriculum ensures all students can make progress.
We set high aspirations and are driven to meet them. We value the importance of working hard to achieve our goals and the rewards gained from reaching them.
We communicate through fluent speech and writing and use creative methods to represent our knowledge and ideas. We value the work of others and what it conveys.
The academy community works together for the benefit of all. We value teamwork and collaboration, within the academy community and with our external partners.

Our Year 7 netball team played their third game of the season last week - and what a performance it was! The squad showed clear improvement from their first two outings, demonstrating growing confidence, teamwork, and determination on court. There was some excellent attacking play throughout the match, with our shooters truly on fire as they scored an impressive 13 goals. In defence, the team was equally strong, working hard to limit their opponents to just 3 goals, resulting in a brilliant and welldeserved win. The players should feel incredibly proud of their commitment to training and their desire to keep improving week after week. With just one league game left before the upcoming tournament where all schools will compete on the same night , the team is building great momentum. Well done, Year 7! Keep up the fantastic work.
View PostWell done George, we are super proud of you!

Colne Primet Academy Students Enjoy Inspiring Careers Fair Students from Colne Primet Academy had an exciting and inspiring day as they attended the Pendle Education Trust Careers Fair. The event brought together a wide range of colleges, employers and organisations, giving students the opportunity to learn more about different industries and career pathways. Throughout the day, students spoke with representatives from Nelson and Colne College Sixth Form , East Lancashire UC. and a variety of employers and organisations including Auditel, Reed, Burnley FC in the Community, the RAF, the Army, the DWP, Hayes and Taylor Shaw. The exhibitors shared valuable insights into their sectors, helping students to understand the many opportunities available to them in the future. Students were enthusiastic and engaged as they explored the different stalls, asked questions and discovered more about the skills and qualifications needed for different careers. It was fantastic to see students thinking about their aspirations and gaining inspiration for their next steps. The day was a great success, and all students from Colne Primet Academy had an amazing time learning about the many possibilities open to them as they begin to consider their future career paths.

Year 5 children from Lord Street Primary School Colne, Marsden Community Primary School and Castercliff Primary Academy have enjoyed becoming Element Hunters this week along with "Dr Z" and Dr K". Children completed missions based on the book Itch by Simon Mayo which gets them into the roles of scientists. We hope the primary schools enjoy their gift of the book and reading about Itchingham Lofte's adventures.
