Welcome to
St Nicholas Primary School

We are a small, friendly and inclusive school located close to Hull University, serving families from a diverse range of backgrounds across the city of Hull. Our size allows us to build strong relationships with our children and families, creating a caring environment where every child feels valued and supported.

With a rich history dating back to 1897, St Nicholas has a long-standing commitment to care, community and high expectations. We are proud of our reputation as a nurturing school, recognised by Ofsted for the outstanding care we provide and the strong personal development of our pupils.

Our children learn in a positive and engaging environment, supported by dedicated staff and excellent facilities, both indoors and outdoors. We believe in supporting the whole child — academically, socially and emotionally — so that every pupil can thrive.

We hope our website gives you a real sense of life at St Nicholas Primary School and all that we have to offer.
