Our pupils demonstrate kindness, compassion, and a wonderfully inquisitive nature, as they encompass their own growth mindset through the Power of Yet!  Here, we do not see potential as ‘finite’ and something to be ‘fulfilled’, but instead as an ever-growing target that adapts and evolves with each individual.

In unity, The Orchards’ dedicated staff strive to make connections with children, to help them feel valued, accepted, and safe. Our Orchards’ Values of Pride, Enjoyment, Achievement and Respect are woven through every aspect of our school and continue to guide our mission to help each individual child develop a love of learning and to cultivate and explore their own interests in a secure and challenging environment.

Driven by our school motto ‘Flourish and Grow’; through our engaging curriculum, we ensure that our children develop high aspirations and have memorable experiences. Children should be curious and passionate about their learning, and we strongly believe in ensuring that they receive a well-rounded curriculum where individual talents can be identified and nurtured.

The school converted to academy status on the 1st April 2021; we are proud to be a part of The Black Pear Trust and feel we stand as a testament to their motto of Growing Excellent Learning Communities Together.
