From the Ankermoor Primary Academy
At Ankermoor, we consider learning to be the foundation of everything we do. No matter where they start off or what their interests are, all of our students have the opportunity to succeed thanks to our comprehensive and balanced curriculum. We value the fact that cooperation is at the heart of our school since it is essential to the success of learning and achievement. In order for our kids to leave Ankermoor prepared for the next steps in their educational journey, our Ankermoor family works hard to foster community. Our six core beliefs guide all we do in order to properly cultivate these features. For our children to have high expectations in whatever they do, perseverance in their learning, and pleasure of school life, it is crucial that they embody our three core character values of trust, responsibility, and respect. These are the agreed-upon school principles, and as members of the Ankermoor Family, it is our responsibility to uphold them and regularly communicate them to the kids. Once a value becomes a behaviour, it soon gets ingrained and elevated to the status of a school principal.
