About Overthorpe CofE Academy

As a school, we aim to ignite a spark for learning in all young minds, that inspires and creates independence for life, within an environment that is safe, stable and caring for all. Our staff, governors, parents and pupils are determined to provide the very best for our children so that they learn in school and for life.

We have a fantastic group of young people and amazing staff. The staff ensure that the children always have the very best experiences in school, provide a wonderful, enriching curriculum that enables ALL of our children to enjoy themselves and achieve great things!

We ensure that our 'Curriculum fit for Overthorpe', stimulates and excites our children to have a real purpose for learning, whilst ensuring all children fulfil their potential through a broad and balanced curriculum.

Our school vision reflects what we want for our Overthorpe family:

'Overthorpe is more than a school -
We are the heart of our community,
In our family, we nurture the courage,
And skills to fly higher than the flock,
Whilst always providing a nest,
To come home to.'

Our school’s Christian values are Trust, Friendship, Endurance, Hope and Forgiveness; we aim to instil these in everything that we do in school and believe that these represent our fantastic pupils, Christian beliefs and the local community. We believe in all our children and we are committed to ensuring that our children are always ready for the next step of their development.

An Employee Assistance Programme is available to all staff, which offers you access to information, advice and support, on issues such as legal, medical, counselling etc. We have a comfortable and friendly staff room, which currently offers free tea and coffee at break times.
