Welcome
At East Park Academy, we take great pride in being a vital part of our community, ensuring that all our children leave school with the confidence and resilience needed to thrive beyond our school gates. Our curriculum is ambitious for all pupils and is thoughtfully sequenced to provide a variety of opportunities for the children to explore and discover their own passions in life.
​
Our school is guided by the East Park 8 values, which underpin everything we do.
​
As a proud member of Manor Multi Academy Trust, our staff and children work collaboratively with drive and determination to bring out the best in everyone, enabling us all to reach our full potential. We inspire our children to be the very best version of themselves through our school vision, "Growing Hearts and Minds".
​
I am extremely proud to be the Headteacher at East Park Academy and to be part of this wonderful community.

East Park 8 Values
Our original East Park 8 were created in September 2017 by children, staff and parents working together to decide the values and qualities we aspire our children to embody during their years at our school:
​
Creativity, Self-belief, Respect, Perseverance, Resilience, Honesty, Independence and Collaboration. These values are embedded within our school culture and are celebrated during our weekly Friday praise assembly with stars of the week being awarded to children who have demonstrated an East Park 8 value during the week.
​
In September 2020, we revisited these 8 values and qualities and explored with our children and staff if they should remain the same or whether changes were needed to reflect the changes that had taken place during the past 3 years. After lots of discussion, our updated East Park 8 were launched:
​
Creativity
Self-belief
Independence
Collaboration
Responsibility and leadership
Determination
Kindness
Oracy
​
During the Autumn term 2022, all school stakeholders created our vision for our 'End of Year 6 East Parker' and we ensured that our East Park 8 values were a golden thread throughout this.
​
In January 2023, we began an in-depth look at our East Park 8 taking half a term to focus on each value. During each half term we celebrated our values by hosting a whole school focus day led by our Junior Leadership Team.
