Ethos

At Forest Academy, we are committed to ensuring that no child is left behind. We believe every child has the right to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally — whatever their background, needs or starting point. Our culture is one of high expectations, nurture, and equity, built on the firm belief that every child can succeed.

As part of the Inspire Partnership, we provide an inclusive, ambitious curriculum and a safe, nurturing environment where children gain essential knowledge, skills, and confidence. We empower pupils to find their voice, discover their passions, and contribute positively to their community and the wider world.

Core values

Resilience, Kindness, Collaboration, Respect, Responsibility and Curiosity

Our school values are embedded in every aspect of school life, from the way we learn and play, to how we lead and grow together. They guide our interactions, shape our learning behaviours, and reflect the kind of citizens we aspire to develop.

We believe that partnership with parents and carers is integral to our success. Families are not just welcomed, they are valued collaborators in our shared mission to provide the best possible education for every child.

At Forest, children thrive when they feel happy, safe and respected. Through our nurturing ethos, inclusive practices, and deep commitment to community, we foster a strong sense of belonging and purpose for all.
