Ankermoor Primary Academy

At Ankermoor, we believe that learning is at the heart of everything that we do. Our broad and balanced curriculum offers all children with the opportunity to achieve whatever their starting points and whatever their interests.

In order for learning and achievement to be a success, we value the fact that togetherness is at the core of our school. Our Ankermoor family strives to bring people together so that our children leave Ankermoor ready for the next steps in their learning journey.

In order for these aspects to be fully fostered, our 6 fundamental values drive everything that we do. Our 3 key character values of Trust, Responsibility and Respect are essential to our children having High Expectations in all that they do; Perseverance within their learning and enjoyment of school life!

A message from our CEO

The Fierté Trust are proud that all our academies are inclusive, meeting the needs of all pupils within the localities they serve. 

Our values of We are brave, We care, We celebrate individuality and We leave no one behind are realised through our commitment to all children whatever their additional requirements.  

We recognise that this can create frustrations for parents and carers at times where adjustments are made for individuals that may seem unfair.  Such adaptations are entirely in line with our duties under the Equality Act and enhance the experience of all children preparing them to be empathetic and responsible citizens of the future. 

Whilst completely committed to inclusive practices, where we are unable to provide a suitable environment or where the physical safety of pupils or staff is repeatedly compromised, we seek to work with parents and agencies to find suitable alternatives.  This is extremely rare and would very much be a last resort. 

We would like to thank staff, children, parents and carers across the Trust for sharing our values and ensuring that all are welcomed and feel a genuine sense of belonging.
