Burrsville Infant Academy

Welcome

Burrsville Infant School was established in 1967. The school converted to an academy with the REAch2 Academy Trust in December 2013. Burrsville Infant Academy is situated on the Birds Estate in Great Clacton and welcomes children from around the coastal village of Great Clacton.

We operate a two form entry which means each September we welcome 6i0 children into our Early Years classes, Maple and Rowan. 

Each July we send our year 2 children to Great Clacton Junior School. The Junior School is on our site but is managed independently. Miss Siggery joined our team as our deputy in September 2013 and became Head of School in 2014. In September 2018, Miss Siggery became Headteacher at Burrsville.

The school is very proud of the facilities and success enjoyed over the past few years.

If, as a parent of a pupil attending this school, you require a paper copy of the information on this website, we are happy to provide this free of charge.

Year 2 Leavers Night Under the Stars

Our Year 2 children had a wonderful evening as their final celebration of their time at Burrsville. They had pizza and chips with their friend, a disco and an outdoor cinema.

On Monday we celebrated our last week of the summer term with a concert from our children that have been attending Rock Steady.

Take a look at our groups below. 

Monday afternoon we invited our Year 2 parents/carers to attend a very special Leavers assembly.  We sang songs and shared memories of our special times we had being part of the Burrsville family.  

We are delighted to share with you our OFSTED Report

We want to share with you a video that has been produced as part of the promotion of 11 before 11.
