About us

At Orchard View Primary Academy, we are creating a vibrant new learning community where strong relationships sit at the heart of everything we do. Through meaningful partnerships and a shared passion for learning, we empower everyone to grow with confidence, meet challenge with determination and strive for excellence.

As a brand-new academy, this is a unique opportunity to be part of something special from the very beginning — a school shaped by strong values, high expectations and an unwavering belief in the potential of every learner.

Orchard View first opened this academic year in September 2025, with 60 pupils: a Foundation Stage class and a mixed Y1/Y2 class. Due to planning delays, Orchard View opened within Kingsbrook View Primary Academy, a neighbouring partner academy of Inspiring Futures Partnership Trust.

From September 2026, Orchard View Primary Academy will move into a state-of-the-art new building, designed to support outstanding teaching, learning and wellbeing. We will expand to a capacity of 180 pupils across Foundation Stage, Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3. As the academy grows, we are excited to expand our team and welcome new staff who are passionate about helping to shape our culture, curriculum and future success. We strongly believe in the power of education to transform lives and secure successful futures.
