Headteacher's Welcome

We pride ourselves on putting children are at the heart of everything we do to ensure that every child in our care feels happy, safe and secure so they can thrive in the excellent learning experiences we provide.

Through building positive relationships, creating a supportive atmosphere, building resilience and encouraging children to share how they are feeling, we are able to help the children to manage growing up in the modern world and be as worry free as possible so they can access the great learning opportunities being provided to them. We endeavour to support our children to be the very best they can be whilst being well-rounded individuals who can positively impact the community.

We strive to ensure every child is able to meet their full potential and is ready for the next phase of education by providing a broad curriculum using new technologies. We are an inclusive school who provide excellent learning opportunities and a stimulating learning environment which meet the needs of each individual child and promotes a lifelong love of learning. Here at The Linden Academy, learning is fun and staff are encouraged to be creative in how they deliver learning experiences to ensure learning is brought to life and memorable for the children.

The Linden Academy has dedicated and passionate staff who set high standards and expectations for both behaviour and learning.

Children are encouraged to take risks in their learning, pushing themselves to come out of their comfort zones. If mistakes are made, the children are supported to learn from these mistakes which makes the learning experience more memorable.

Our five school values (Respect, Honest, Hardworking, Caring and Understanding) are at the very heart of everything we do and how we expect all members of our school community to be. There is a clear focus on these values and the children are supported in their understanding of these and how they can develop their attitudes and behaviour to be the very best they can be.

We hope our website gives you the information that you need. However, we welcome and encourage visits to our school so you can see and feel the wonderful ethos and experiences that our children are exposed to.

Please see our ‘Contact Us’ page or ‘Admissions’ page for further information on how to do this.

We look forward to welcoming you to our excellent school soon!
