Work with other schools
Montalbo Nursery and Primary School recently worked with other good and outstanding schools as part of the North East Primary Research Collaboration. This evidence based research programme led to improvements in children’s reading inference skills and a redesign of our Music Curriculum. Montalbo are supporting some other local schools with aspects of their curriculum.
Community Engagement
Montalbo Nursery and Primary School pride ourselves in our community engagement. We make close links and take part in activities with many local organisations such as St Mary’s Church, TCR Hub, The Witham, Bowes Museum, Durham University, Barnard Castle Town Council, GlaxoSmtihKline and Residential Care Homes. In the Summer of 2024, we worked with Volker Laser who are refurbishing Whorlton Bridge, to produce huge artworks to clad their unsightly workshop. If you would like to work with us is some capacity, please let us know.
