We are working hard towards being fully General Data Protection Regulations compliant. Watch this space for our GDPR policy and updates for our school. (25th May 2018)
Don’t forget that we are closed to all pupils on Monday 11th March for teacher training. Have a great long weekend, see you all on Tuesday at the normal time.
Welcome to our school’s website, which we hope you will find helpful and will provide you with a wealth of information about our school.
It has been almost 16 years that I have had the privilege to lead this wonderful school. During that time there have been many exciting challenges and as a school we have seen much change. Our school motto, Learning and Growing Together is as relevant today, as it was when it was chosen in 2001 by the newly formed school council of the newly amalgamated Wattville Primary School.
We are a school proud of our heritage in the heart of Handsworth. How appropriate that our school name comes from one of the pioneering industrial revolutionists, James Watt, a man of Science and invention who embodied a desire for learning and changing the world for a better future. We aim to foster attributes of curiosity and perseverance in our pupils, and help them to see that each and every one of us has skills, knowledge and abilities to offer.
We are blessed by the rich diversity of our pupils’ cultural and social heritage and see this as a real strength for the school. We strive to provide our pupils with a curriculum and a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities that will equip them for the future. We pride ourselves on engaging with our school community and sharing their life-long journey of learning, preparing our pupils for the next stage of their education and beyond.

We would urge any and all parents/guardians with concerns about the smell, smoke and dust affecting the school and local area to call the Environment Agency as soon as you are affected on:

this is a free call, even from most mobile phone operators, please check first.
The name of the recycling centre is;
SB Waste based on Middlemore industrial Estate, B66 2DZ
