Rushbrook Primary Academy

About Rushbrook Primary Academy

Rushbrook Primary Academy is part of Bright Futures Educational Trust, a multi-academy trust set up in 2011. The Trust is made up of a richly diverse group of schools in Greater Manchester and Blackpool.  We are passionate about working together within and beyond the Trust to achieve our aspirational vision: the best for everyone, the best from everyone. We are an organisation that is underpinned by values of: Leadership, Integrity, Passion, Community, Equality and Resilience. In everything we do, we remember that we are accountable to the children, families and communities that we serve.


Known as the 'Rushbrook family', our school is a happy school. We have a vibrant, friendly and welcoming environment with a diverse group of pupils and staff.  The behaviour of our pupils is very important and we place great importance on aiming for, and achieving high standards in everything that we do.

We have a Nursery for children aged 3-4 years old and we have a three-form intake from Reception upwards.  We have a free breakfast club each day for all of our pupils and many after school enrichment clubs.

Developing a lifelong love of learning is at the heart of all we do at Rushbrook. We believe that all pupils are entitled to a curriculum which is exciting and engaging. Children are supported in developing their skills across a broad range of subjects. There are also many opportunities for enrichment of the curriculum, including after school clubs and educational visits.

At Rushbrook we follow our four values and thread them through everything that we do as we want the best for every learner in our community.  We raise AWARENESS , take ACTION, develop ASPIRATION , and have the right ATTITUDE.  If you are part of Rushbrook, you are a LEARNER.

Our vision is to put learning a the centre of everything we do for all our family.  Academic learning, learning about life and learning about ourselves and each other.  All our family members will be aware of what needs to change, be able to take the best actions and then raise the bar so that they achieve more than they ever imagined

We follow our vision so that every child is supported in their quest to become the best they can be, through engaging them in our rich learning environment and caring for them with genuine affection. We foster a passion for learning and exploration that will last the children a lifetime, and instil in them moral values which respect the environment as well as people and their cultures. Our children leave us with excellent skills of independence, an ability to engage in meaningful play, and knowledge that they are capable and valuable members of the community.

We have made significant improvements to making the classrooms engaging, developing our enrichment clubs and working closer with parents. I am excited to be on the journey of improvement at Rushbrook Academy and our ambition is that the school improves greatly over time, results increase year on year, children enjoy their time with us and achieve the very best that they can in all aspects of their learning.

At Rushbrook Primary Academy, our students are diverse, exciting and talented – and the same is true of our staff. We put huge emphasis on professional development, most of it in-house, and are proud of the high number of good and outstanding teachers and support staff  who work in our school. We are also noted for our ‘can do’ attitude. We are keen, always, to encourage new staff to make their mark as soon as they are ready.

We are proud to serve our community in Gorton and the surrounding areas. We are looking to build upon our strengths and develop into a truly great place to learn and teach.
