About

Fierté Family of Schools Vision and Values Vision and Ethos Our vision for Anker Valley Primary Academy is to work in close collaboration with parents, the local and wider community to inspire all to excellence .

Pupils will reach the highest standards of achievement and personal success through engaging with a range of learning experiences that foster curiosity and capitalise on their unique talents. Our ethos will reflect the values of the Fiert Trust: we care, we leave no one behind, we celebrate individuality and we are brave.

As a result, an Anker Valley pupil will stand out as a child who is compassionate, never gives up on others, takes their own opportunity but also allows others their moment to shine and relentlessly aspires to achieve more overcoming obstacles or setbacks. At Anker Valley, we are passionate about providing an education that meets the needs of all our children and families.

We understand the importance of being ready to learn and how external and internal factors can impact upon a childs successes. We have high expectations that all stakeholders will work together to provide the best possible opportunities that will enable our children to thrive in an ever-changing society.
