Our education

Parents

At Heartsease Primary Academy, we believe that in order to provide a successful education for every individual child we must work in partnership with parents.


We have high expectations of ourselves, our children and our parents and carers. Together, we develop all areas of academy life, with clear expectations from all sides.

Welcome Dear Parents and Carers, As we reach the end of this half term, we want to take a moment to reflect on the achievements, resilience and growth for the children. From classroom successes to extracurricular triumphs, our students and staff have shown incredible dedication and resilience. This half term also marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our school. We are delighted to welcome our new Executive Headteacher, Mrs Guy, and Deputy Headteacher Miss Gillard who join us with a wealth of experience, a passion for education, and a deep commitment to nurturing every child’s potential. Mrs Guy has already begun meeting with students, staff, and families, and is eager to build on the strong foundations of our school community. In her own words: “I am honoured to join such a vibrant and caring school. I look forward to working together with you all to continue creating a place where every child feels valued, inspired, and empowered to succeed.” As we head into the break, we encourage everyone to take time to rest, recharge, and enjoy time with loved ones. We look forward to returning refreshed and ready for the exciting opportunities the next half term will bring. Wishing you all a safe and happy break. Warm regards, Mrs Jo Brown Director of Education

Welcome Dear Parents and Carers, As we reach the end of the third week of the summer term, it’s been fantastic to see the school community in full swing. Pupils have returned with great enthusiasm, and there’s a real sense of purpose and positivity in the air. Our Year 6 pupils are now in the final stretch before their SATs next week. They’ve shown such commitment and maturity in their preparation, and we’re incredibly proud of each and every one of them. We’ll be doing all we can to ensure they feel supported, calm, and confident going into the week ahead. A big thank you to families for your encouragement at home—it really does make a difference. Let’s continue to build on this strong start to the term and make the most of the weeks ahead. Kind regards Mr N Campbell

Welcome Dear Parents and Carers, It has been a very exciting term which has culminate in Keeping safe month and Kindness week this week. The children have been learning about how to be kind to each other, talking positively about each other, giving and receiving compliments and undertaking a variety of team building activities. I met with the Chair and Vice Chair of the school council this week where they highlighted things that are going well - believe it or not the children love playing with the tyres donated by Spixworth MOT Bay! Areas that they want to look at are more clubs for the children that are not just sports and so the school council will be launching a pupil survey next ½ term to find out what clubs the children would like to take part. This will then help us make the transition from Thursday "keep up and catch up" groups run by teachers to things that are more interest based. I will keep you updated once the survey has been completed and the array of after school activities that will be in place after May half term. Thank you again for your ongoing support and have a lovely Easter Break. Term starts again on Tuesday 22nd April. Kind regards Mr N Campbell
