Welcome to
Acre Heads Primary School
‘a place to nourish thinking minds’
On behalf of the pupils, staff and governors, I’m delighted to welcome you to the Acre Heads Primary School website. We are incredibly proud of our school, our pupils and their achievements. Acre Heads has a strong, respected reputation for success in academic learning, the arts and sport.
At the heart of all we do is a genuine love of life and learning. We aim to create a nurturing, inclusive environment where children feel safe, supported, respected and valued. Our dedicated staff provide an engaging, enriching curriculum that inspires curiosity, creativity and excellence.
We believe every child is unique and full of potential. It is our privilege to support and guide them as they grow in confidence, skills and understanding. We aim to equip all pupils with the knowledge, resilience and enthusiasm needed to lead happy, fulfilling lives.
This can be seen through our core values:
BELIEF, DETERMINATION, RESILIENCE, TEAMWORK
We hope this website provides a sense of what makes Acre Heads such a special place to learn and grow. If you are considering our school for your child, we would be delighted to welcome you for a visit. Come and see the school in action and meet the wonderful pupils and staff who make it such a happy and purposeful community.

We have had a wonderful afternoon with Philippa Leathley, local author of the Inkbound Series.
Years 4 to 6 took part in a very engaging assembly and Mr Sitch enjoyed showing Philippa around Acre Heads.
Of course the most exciting part of the day was when Philippa opened our Reading Retreat!
We hope you all agree it is a magical space with over 1600 books - all individually stamped and logged by Mrs Richardson and our team of Reading Ambassadors. You have all done a marvellous job.
More details of the official build to come!
