Straits Primary School

Straits Primary School

Straits Primary School is a primary school in Sedgley, West Midlands, England. It was built in 1968 to serve the (then) new Straits housing estate. The current headmaster is Mr Adrian Slack, who has been at the helm since September 1997. On his arrival, the school had been placed into special measures by OFSTED inspectors who had criticised the school heavily under its previous management. It came out of special measures in 1999 and is now one of the strongest performing primary schools in the whole Dudley borough. The general foreman for build was Mr Thomas S Wheeler.

The newly-founded Milking Bank Primary School was briefly based in mobile classrooms on parts of the school grounds on its opening in September 1989, as the new school was not ready for use at this time. This arrangement lasted less than a term, however, as the new Milking Bank school was ready in November that year.
