  • Visions & Values

    Our Vision

    At Cherry Tree Academy, we strive to create a vibrant, happy and safe learning community where every child is encouraged to thrive — academically, socially and emotionally — and to be the best they can be.

    We believe that children learn best when they feel valued, supported and inspired. Our school is a place where curiosity is nurtured, individuality is celebrated, and high expectations empower children to develop the confidence, resilience and skills they need for success in school and in life.

    As a school at the heart of its community, we work in close partnership with families and external agencies to promote positive relationships, wellbeing and a shared commitment to learning. Together, we ensure that every child is prepared not only for the next stage of their education, but for life beyond the classroom.

    • Treating everyone with fairness, dignity and respect, ensuring that every individual feels valued and included

    • Creating a safe, happy and nurturing environment where children feel confident to take risks and challenge themselves

    • Encouraging confidence, independence and individuality, helping children to believe in themselves and their abilities

    • Making learning engaging, purposeful and enjoyable through challenge, teamwork and collaboration
