Welcome

Welcome to Millbank Gardens Primary Academy, part of Future Academies. We are a warm and welcoming primary school that sits at the heart of our local community. We have a very simple aim, and we work closely with parents and families to achieve it: to set up our children for happy, meaningful lives, full of choice and opportunity.

We want all our children to start secondary school confident in what they have learned, and with the resilience and work ethic to succeed. We know that academic success opens doors for young people. We aim high for children and our dedicated, experienced team of teachers and teaching assistants provide the support that they need to get there.

Just as importantly, though, we want them to grow into well-rounded, kind young people, who have had the chance to find and develop their own interests and talents – both through a broad and balanced curriculum, and also through an enviable offer of clubs, trips and other opportunities.

Above all, we work hard to build a culture where every child wants to come to school each day. It is important to us that every child feels safe, known and valued at Millbank Gardens, that they create memories that will last them a lifetime and that they take joy in their learning. As our children progress through the school, they develop the ability to work hard – and they have fun while doing so. There is plenty of laughter, creativity and excitement as our children learn about themselves and the world around them.
