About Chantry Primary Academy

About Chantry Primary Academy

I am honoured and delighted to introduce myself as the Headteacher of Chantry Primary Academy. Having served as the Head of School for two years prior to taking up headship, it is with great enthusiasm that I take the school on an exciting journey alongside our exceptional school community.

We had our most recent visit from Ofsted inspection in June 2023 which recognised that “Chantry Primary Academy is a school where pupils are happily ‘learning for life’. The school’s values of aspiration, respect, unity, integrity, independence, enjoyment and quality are practised in the daily lives of the pupils.”  In addition, inspectors found that “The behaviour of older pupils is exemplary. This is particularly evident during their lessons, where they remain focused and engaged in their learning.”  Recognising the commitment to our staff team, inspectors found that “Staff appreciate the support leaders give them. They recognise that leaders care about their well-being and workload and have therefore put systems in place to support them. Consequently, staff overwhelmingly enjoy working in this school.”

Our School

Chantry is a 3 form entry school with 90 Reception places available each year.  In addition, we have 78 places for children aged 3 - 4 in our Nursery, offering both 15 hour and 30 hour placements with a full wraparound childcare facility from 7:35am to 6pm. 

Chantry is a successful school which is a unique and exciting place to be.  Our school ethos is built upon our values – aspiration, quality, unity, respect, integrity, enjoyment and independence.  With high expectations and standards, we believe that Chantry offers an excellent educational experience for our pupils.  Children succeed at Chantry thanks to high quality learning experiences provided by our extensive and dedicated team.  Children also enjoy our creative approach to learning and feel secure in our caring school environment.

Our curriculum is built around three key principles – High Quality Literature, Experiential Learning and the firm belief that ‘Every Child Can’.  Children learn through an innovative book based curriculum, taking part in experiences and activities in our 'wow-factors' which help to create a unique learning experience for our pupils. 

We are a highly inclusive school with high expectations coupled with a commitment to SEND friendly approaches to ensure that children have their needs met.  Staff have excellent relationships with parents and carers to ensure that children are effectively supported in their learning and in their lives.  We have an excellent reputation of working effectively to support pupils with SEND and we provide high quality support children of all abilities with a specialist staff team to support up to 17 children with visual impairments.  We also work with local schools to provide support for up to 8 children who have additional behavioural needs.

As a member of the Pioneer Learning Trust, we work closely with our family of schools to   We support one another in a range of ways, including the sharing of good practice, staff training and even some of our resources.  We also work closely with other local Trusts and partner schools.

Our Mission

At Chantry we are relentless in our pursuit of excellence and our desire that pupils develop a thirst for knowledge of the world around them. We celebrate the diversity and individuality of our pupils, staff and community, meeting everyone’s needs through our values-based ethos and culture.

We offer

     A school with excellent leadership, driven by our core values and a firm belief that all children have the right to the best education 

     A diverse population of hard working pupils with ‘exemplary behaviour’ (Ofsted 2023)

     A friendly, dedicated, supportive and happy team of staff and governors 

     Exceptional opportunities for CPD and career progression

     The Pioneer Promise to Staff – a package of commitments and benefits for staff ranging from workload reduction strategies to a work-life support day, face to face counselling and support, a discounts package and free school meals and much more


At Chantry Primary Academy we are confident that all visitors to our lively school will love it as much as we do and we pride ourselves on our warm and friendly welcome.
