Welcome to Ernehale Flying High Academies

Ernehale Flying High Academies is formed from Ernehale Infant School and Ernehale Junior School. Although two separate schools, we function as one primary setting, ensuring that every child experiences a seamless educational journey—from their foundation years through to Year 6—where they are nurtured, supported, and challenged to reach their full potential.

Our Commitment: At Ernehale FHA, we are committed to achieving excellence in all aspects of school life. Through our core values, we inspire our children to aim high, be their best, and choose kindness. Our belief in determination, perseverance, teamwork, and trust underpins everything we do, encouraging a culture where children and staff continually challenge themselves to improve and grow.

Personalised Learning: Our priority is to provide the highest possible standards of teaching, learning, and achievement. We personalise learning experiences to best meet the needs of our children and our community, ensuring that each child feels safe, supported, and empowered to develop their talents. Our goal is to make learning enjoyable and meaningful, equipping children with the skills and confidence to become responsible, engaged citizens and caring adults.

Collaborative Approach: Collaboration is at the heart of our approach. Staff, parents, governors, and the wider school community work in close partnership to provide a high-quality education that fosters a lifelong love of learning. As part of the Flying High Academy Trust, we embrace opportunities to share best practices, learn from one another, and work together to achieve the highest outcomes for our children.

ABC Charter: At the heart of the Ernehale FHA is the ABC Charter, which ensures that all pupils become aspirational, independent, and confident learners. We foster an environment where children feel happy, secure, and valued—regardless of ability, background, culture, or gender. Our curriculum and extracurricular activities reinforce key values such as democracy, the rule of law, freedom of speech, and mutual respect, helping children understand their role in society and take responsibility for their choices. These principles are not only explicitly taught but are also embedded in everyday learning and school life.

Message from the Headteacher: I am incredibly proud to be the Headteacher of Ernehale Flying High Academies. Together, we create a nurturing, inspiring, and ambitious learning environment where every child can thrive and succeed.

Best Wishes,

Carmel Atkinson
Headteacher
