Welcome
At East Park Academy, we are more than just a school; we are a vibrant and inclusive community where every child is empowered to dream big and achieve even more. We believe in igniting curiosity, nurturing creativity, and building the confidence and resilience our children need to thrive in an ever-changing world.
​
Our curriculum is dynamic and thoughtfully designed to spark a lifelong love of learning. It offers every child the chance to explore their passions, discover their strengths, and unlock their full potential.
Everything we do is guided by the East Park 8 values which inspire excellence, kindness, and integrity in all that we do.
​
As proud members of Manor Multi Academy Trust, we work together with energy and determination to bring out the best in everyone. Through our shared vision, "Growing Hearts and Minds", we empower our children to become the very best version of themselves - not just for today, but for the future they will help shape.
​
It is an absolute honour to lead East Park Academy and to be part of such a passionate, forward-thinking, and caring school community.

East Park 8 Values
Our original East Park 8 were created in September 2017 by children, staff and parents working together to decide the values and qualities we aspire our children to embody during their years at our school:
​
Creativity, Self-belief, Respect, Perseverance, Resilience, Honesty, Independence and Collaboration. These values are embedded within our school culture and are celebrated during our weekly Friday praise assembly with stars of the week being awarded to children who have demonstrated an East Park 8 value during the week.
​
In September 2020, we revisited these 8 values and qualities and explored with our children and staff if they should remain the same or whether changes were needed to reflect the changes that had taken place during the past 3 years. After lots of discussion, our updated East Park 8 were launched:
​
Creativity
Self-belief
Independence
Collaboration
Responsibility and leadership
Determination
Kindness
Oracy
​
During the Autumn term 2022, all school stakeholders created our vision for our 'End of Year 6 East Parker' and we ensured that our East Park 8 values were a golden thread throughout this.
​
In January 2023, we began an in-depth look at our East Park 8 taking half a term to focus on each value. During each half term we celebrated our values by hosting a whole school focus day led by our Junior Leadership Team.
