QUALITY EDUCATION ROOTED IN CARE

HIGH QUALITY CARE West Ashtead are committed to providing a high quality learning environment for their children so that they can thrive both academically and socially. We expect the highest standards from all children and provide them with the challenge, opportunities and experiences for them to flourish.

We aim to create independent, confident and resilient individuals who leave the school prepared for future challenges.

We aim to create a safe and supportive learning environment for all pupils. We provide a wide range of extra-curricular activities such as sports, music, and art clubs.

We also offer a variety of support services for parents, including parenting workshops, home-school liaison and access to a family support worker.

“All staff are to be congratulated about how they have embraced the recent changes at West Ashtead. This includes the move to LEO Academy Trust and the introduction of a new principal. Staff are rightly optimistic about the future, keen to rise up to the work ahead.”

PERSONALISED LEARNING At West Ashtead Primary Academy, we recognise that every child is unique and has their own learning style and needs. The individualised attention and support we provide ensures that each child has the resources they need to reach their full potential.

Regular residential trips foster the development of strong connections among pupils and staff. These opportunities enable teachers to establish a more profound understanding of their pupils' personalities and learning styles.

NURTURING ENVIRONMENT “This a happy school where everyone receives a warm and sincere welcome. Pupils are nurtured well in a kind and caring environment.”

- Ofsted, 2019

We recognise and celebrate the individual achievements of each child. Our aim is to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where all children feel valued and respected.

Our wide range of opportunities allow pupils to explore their interests. Whether it be sporting competitions or musical concerts, children at West Ashtead can discover their passions and develop their talents in a supportive environment.

West Ashtead Primary Academy is a proud member of the LEO Academy Trust, and as such, all of our pupils participate in the Trust's 1:1 Chromebook Programme. Equipped with their own devices, pupils are able to engage more deeply in their learning and independently select the resources they need to enhance their education.

Staff and pupils regularly collaborate with other schools in LEO Academy Trust, participating in joint events such as sporting competitions and arts festivals. These events provide the opportunity for children to learn from each other and for staff to share best practices.
