Our School

Cramond Primary is a non-denominational school built in 1975. 

The school serves the village of Cramond and the surrounding areas of northwest Edinburgh. 

We are proud to be part of the Royal High School learning community. We work closely with the other associated primaries of Blackhall, Clermiston and Davidson’s Mains. 

The school roll is over 500 pupils. We have a custom-built nursery on site with 48 full time, term time places. Our school building was extensively upgraded and extended in 1999 and then again in 2006.  We have a new sports hall as a result of rising roll along with a double class P7 learning hub. Recent building works included full renovation of a school wing in 2024 -25.

We are proud of our agile learning environments with nurture and agile seating at their core.

Children are encouraged from the youngest learners to be independent and lead their own learning.

We have strong digital and play based pedagogy which we continue to review and develop.

There are currently 17 classrooms and a large nursery classroom.  Our learning facilities include a new sportshall (2017) a nurture room, and ample agile spaces for learning. Cramond pride themselves on a flexible seating arrangement to facilitate agile learning. High quality spaces for learning are created indoor and outdoor with extensive natural playgrounds allowing high quality outdoor learning.

The playground area also consists of a tarmac netball court,  a grassy field, large slide and sandpit areas.  We have a nursery and school wildlife garden including an outdoor classroom.

Our Place has been developed over the summer of 2014 as a community resource for out of hours play. We continue to develop our outdoor learning spaces.

Cramond has fostered many links with its community, particularly Cramond Kirk, St. Columba’s Hospice, Scottish Wildlife Trust, Cramond Heritage, Fresh start charity and Edinburgh Airport. 

We have an active parent council and a wellbeing grounds team. Come and find out more.
