Anston Park Junior School
About Anston Park Junior School
Just over half of parents responding to the most recent Ofsted parent view would recommend Anston Park Junior School to other families, a figure that sits below the national average for primary schools. The school is also not oversubscribed; with a capacity of 300 pupils, it has room to take on more children in the 7–11 age range. This suggests a school that families in the Rotherham area are not yet flocking to, but one where a place is readily available for those who choose it. Headteacher Ryan Cousins leads a mixed, non-denominational state primary that does not have a nursery or sixth form. The school’s facilities include a library, music rooms, art studios and a chapel, and it offers clubs such as art, choir and science club, alongside sports including cross country, swimming, cricket, dance and tennis.
