Copeland Road Primary School

Copeland Road Primary School is smaller than most primary schools although our pupil roll is increasing. We serve a predominantly rural community in West Auckland.

We believe that by working closely alongside parents and the community we can develop a fruitful and productive partnership to benefit all of our children.
