Welcome to Flax Hill Junior Academy

We are a busy, thriving school committed to providing our children with a broad range of opportunities to learn, develop and shine.

Our school’s main aim is to create a happy, caring, secure environment in which our children can develop confidence, individuality and good learning habits. We help pupils develop lively, enquiring minds. We encourage them to speak thoughtfully and confidently and we teach them to work and play with care and consideration for others. Most of all, we want each child to feel they have helped to make our school a successful, happy place to be.

Pupils are proud to attend their school. They are happy and feel safe in school because they are well cared for.

We pride ourselves on our children’s attitudes and achievements and we know these are due to a very close partnership between our school and your family. We have strong links to local churches and very much see the school as the centre of our local community.

Good attendance is of paramount importance for your child’s education. It is vitally important that children are in school, as a missed day means missed learning.

At Mercia Primary Academy Trust, we aim to prepare our students to become good citizens of the future. Through our curriculum, we teach pupils British values and how to celebrate diversity.

We aim to raise their awareness of radicalisation and extremist views, whatever the source. We have adopted the principles and advice found in ‘Keeping Children Safe In Education’ and the ‘Prevent Strategy’. These are incorporated into our school policy on tackling extremism.
