Forest Academy

Forest Academy Our school is a special place where the staff are dedicated to providing a stimulating environment. Children thrive when they feel happy, safe and respected.

At Forest Academy, our learning community creates pupils with inspiration, ambition, academic success where pupils are passionate to learn. Through our challenge curriculum, pupils develop a love for the outdoors and learning in the local environment, being aware that learning can come in many forms. Pupils are respectful of and celebrate each other’s differences, heritage and culture. They are self-motivated, confident pupils able to apply their skills. We are an Academy built on interdependence, encouraging all staff, pupils, parents and carers and the community, to work together to achieve more than they ever could have accomplished as individuals. All pupils are polite, well rounded, inquisitive individuals who are respectful of others
All pupils develop thinking skills enabling future success outside of school and in years to come
We expect the best from every pupil in all that they do
By providing an interesting and creative challenge curriculum which engages our children, and by promoting excellent behaviour, we aim to enthuse in all our children a desire to learn, as well as care and respect for each other. The link between home and school is integral to your child’s success and we encourage parents to take an active part in the education of their child. We see parents as partners in the education of their children, and greatly value their contribution to school life. Forest Academy is a three form entry mixed primary school with a nursery. We serve a culturally and socially diverse area and are situated in a residential area close to West Wickham. We cater for children between the ages of 3 and 11 years old. Our grounds are extensive and we are fortunate enough to have a brand new nursery and reception area designed within a 'forest' area, complete with running stream.
