Devonshire Primary Academy

Devonshire Primary Academy, located in Blackpool, Lancashire, England, is a coeducational primary school that boasts academy status, offering education from ages 4 to 11 with an enrollment of about 500 students. It has been a fixture in the Layton area since the 19th century, originally established as Devonshire Road School and later renamed Devonshire Primary School. In 2013, the institution was renamed Devonshire Primary Academy.

The school features an advanced, state-of-the-art building that was reopened in 2006 following a fire in 2003, causing £7 million of damage. The new design upon reopening followed a concept that emphasized sustainability, with a beehive-inspired structure that integrated classroom and play decks at the same level, and a rooftop garden equipped with a pond, weather station, and overall commitment to environmental education.

The school aims to foster a nurturing family atmosphere where each child is viewed as unique and has their needs addressed regarding intellectual, physical, emotional, social, and spiritual development. The staff is devoted to pushing pupils to continually strive to improve and reach their potential. They instill core values like resilience, respect, pride, integrity, cooperation, and honesty throughout the school to champion good behavior, self-confidence, and strong personal and social development. Devonshire Primary Academy operates with the vision "The Best That We Can Be".
