A warm welcome to Kettering Park Junior Academy I would like to warmly welcome you to Kettering Park Junior Academy, a good school which is proud to be part of the Inspire Multi Academy Trust (InMat).
Our ethos as an academy is to develop the three essential characteristics of learning progress, mental and physical wellbeing, for every child, building on the foundations developed during the infant years.
We care for the whole child, nurturing their sense of belonging and community as part of the Park family, ready to take their next step in the world, secure in their sense of self. Our children are encouraged and supported to use our PARK values, Pride, Achievement, Responsibility and Kindness throughout their academic learning and social interactions every day.
As a community we recognise the value in working in partnership with our families and are fortunate in the help and support we receive which enables us to appreciate the individuality of each child and celebrate their achievements and successes both in and out of our academy.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
