Keevil Church of England Primary Academy
“Always treat others as you would like to be treated” Matthew 7:12
Keevil Church of England Academy is a welcoming and thriving primary school, educating children between the ages of 5 and 11 years. Situated in the heart of the picturesque village of Keevil, Wiltshire, we are proud to have strong links with our local community and St Leonard’s Church.
We are a family school in every sense of the word; all staff and children ensure that every member of our community feels welcome and belongs. Our staff are committed to ensuring that all of the children in our care grow and flourish, achieving both their academic and personal potential. We achieve this by finding each child’s individual spark, helping their self-esteem and confidence grow, which supports their development and accomplishments. Children leave our school as the best readers, mathematicians and writers they can be, combined with an understanding of health and fitness in body and mind.
In July 2016 we joined Acorn Education Trust, which has provided exciting opportunities to improve local education and draw on collective experience. We work closely with other schools within the Trust and the central team to help us continue to grow from strength to strength.
Our school has a wide range of excellent facilities and provision, including:
-
A large main playground, with dedicated foundation stage play area;
-
Specialist teaching in PE, Music and French;
-
Forest School sessions for all children every year in our dedicated site;
-
A Vibrant programme of trips and visitors to support cross-curricular learning;
-
An Outward-Bound programme to challenge and grow children across KS2;
-
Excellent IT provision (pupil laptops and new generation Smartboards) supported by Acorn IT;
-
A strong and supportive team of professionals both within the school and across the Trust;
-
An active and involved community of parents/carers;
-
A high-level of TA support within classes;
-
A Caring and nurturing Christian ethos across the community.
We look forward to welcoming you to our school and showing you what a wonderful school Keevil is.
