Upton, United Kingdom Upton Meadows Primary School Full time

Upton Meadows Primary School is a happy and successful two-form entry primary school on the outskirts of Northampton; in April 2018 we converted to become an academy and joined the Northampton Primary Academy Trust. Our vision is to develop well rounded, confident and responsible individuals who aspire to achieve their full potential. We aspire to do this by providing a welcoming, happy, safe, and supportive learning environment in which everyone is equal, where opportunities are for all and all achievements are celebrated.

We believe that all children should receive great teaching and be able to leave our school with the academic foundations for success in the future. As a school we recognise the importance of developing the whole child by encouraging and celebrating all their different gifts and talents, be they sporting, academic, musical, theatrical or anything else

Staff work hard at school and are committed to ensuring that children are challenged and supported to achieve highly.

A core set of values underpin our ethos and curriculum, influencing our interactions with each other and our attitudes to learning. RESPECT is at the centre of everything we do in school—respect for others, for yourself and for the school and wider environment. We strongly believe in our place at the heart of the community we serve and seek to establish strong links with our parents and the wider local area.
