‘Proud to be PRIMET’
Our vision is for Colne Primet Academy to be a key part in the educational journey of young people in Pendle and East Lancashire.
As part of Pendle Education Trust, a multi-academy trust sponsored by Nelson and Colne College, we strive to provide our students with the very best educational start in life. We have the very highest expectations and aspirations for our students, and always ensure that they have the support to achieve their goals.






Learning and progress are at the heart of everything we do. We strive to constanstly develop our knowledge and skills, ensuring that every day we move forwards.
We are respectful to ourselves, always aiming for our best and making the most of all our opportunities. We are respectful to others, being kind with our actions and words. And we are respectful to our environment, at a local, national and global level.
All members of the academy are equally valued, and we appreciate the diversity within our academy community. Our curriculum ensures all students can make progress.
We set high aspirations and are driven to meet them. We value the importance of working hard to achieve our goals and the rewards gained from reaching them.
We communicate through fluent speech and writing and use creative methods to represent our knowledge and ideas. We value the work of others and what it conveys.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's ready for the fairest show of all? Colne Primet Academy proudly presents Snow White! Join us for a magical evening filled with laughter, music, and a sprinkle of fairy-tale sparkle as our talented students bring this classic story to life on stage.
