Newquay Junior Academy is a large junior setting, with over 500 KS2 pupils, set in the middle of a vibrant Cornish coastal town. We are very lucky that the academy is close to the beautiful beaches and pupils visit regularly for beach school activities.

Our school motto is, 'Pup Huny Rag Les An Myns' which means, 'Each for the good of the greater number'. Newquay Junior Academy wants all pupils to reach their true potential in a safe, happy and challenging learning experience, where everyone can experience success.

Our Newquay Junior community represents Newquay in a positive way, whether that is through the many beach cleans that we do or our annual Christmas song which we do to raise money for the local foodbank. It is our belief that our pupils will make a positive contribution to the community in which they live. We also value parents and welcome their collaboration as part of our team, alongside staff and Governors.

At Newquay Junior Academy we pride ourselves on being inclusive: every pupil learns about their own lives, the lives of others and those in the wider world, we believe this promotes tolerance of all and is something we all care about very much. 

We are proud of our library, which is bursting with books for all ages and abilities. We organise have regular author visits to help engage pupils and nurture a love of reading. Reading is celebrated at every opportunity.

Newquay Junior Academy was judged to be good following it’s last inspection in 2019.
