St. Mary Cray Primary Academy
A warm welcome from
Our Headteacher
St Mary Cray Primary Academy is set on the boundary of Orpington and enjoys views out towards Lullingstone. With the look and feel of a village school, we strive to create a calm caring environment for all of our children to learn and thrive.
Our school follows three values of Ambition, Collaboration and Equity and expects the best for our students.
What’s special about St Mary Cray Primary School?
At St Mary Cray Primary School, we exist to inspire our community, empower children with the agency to succeed and shape aspirational futures.
Village School
We are a one-form entry school on the edge of Orpington, and that 'village school' feel is exactly what we believe makes us special - every child is known and cared for, every face is familiar, and we all grow together.
Outdoor Learning
All children in EYFS and KS1 access our outdoor learning environment once a week. During this time, they are encouraged to build confidence, resilience, and develop hands-on skills alongside their peers.
