Volunteering at Amblecote Primary School is a brilliant way to support children’s learning and help the school community thrive. Whether you’re listening to readers, helping with classroom activities, supporting trips, or lending a hand at events, your time and encouragement can make a real difference to pupils’ confidence and progress. It’s also a lovely chance to get to know how a primary school day works and feel part of something positive in Dudley.

Many volunteers enjoy the variety and flexibility that volunteering can offer. You might be matched to a role that suits your skills, interests, and availability — from practical help with resources to supporting children one-to-one with reading or number work. Volunteering can be particularly rewarding if you’re considering a career in education, working with children, or simply want to give back locally while building experience and developing new skills.

As with any school setting, safeguarding is always a priority, so volunteers are usually asked to follow the school’s procedures and complete any required checks and paperwork before starting. This helps ensure a safe, welcoming environment for everyone. If you’re interested in volunteering, it’s worth reaching out to the school to find out what opportunities are currently available and how you can get involved.
