New Horizons Children's Academy is a "Good" school (Ofsted May 2022) with a three-form entry that teaches over 600 children from the local community.
Our warm and welcoming Early Years provision offers the perfect start to a child’s educational life, where children learn both inside and outside and are given time to explore, concentrate, persist and develop their thinking. We are committed to developing children from a young age, fostering their interest in learning and establishing positive and caring relationships.
At New Horizons Children's Academy, we take a holistic approach to learning, which fits the whole school’s ethos: ‘Children first, Aspire, Challenge, Achieve’, combine this with a happy, purposeful atmosphere for foundation learning and a rich, varied Early Years curriculum and you have the ingredients for a child’s best possible start.
Our aim is to provide an education that meets the needs of all our children and we expect high standards of behaviour and a positive attitude to learning. Staff share this passion and are a role models for our pupils with their diligence and commitment. In turn, our staff are supported with a framework that aims to bring the best out of them, within an environment that encourages reflection and self-improvement.
