From the Manor Way Primary Academy
With students ranging in age from 4 to 11 years old and only one form of entry, Manor Way Primary Academy is small enough for each student to feel a part of the school community. There are 202 students on role right now. Welcome to Manor Way Primary Academy, I'd like to say. To further enhance the outcomes for our students, we are on an exciting adventure. We have one class a year and are a small, inviting school. The staff members here are warm, devoted, and enthusiastic about education. We have great relationships with parents and the community, and our kids are wonderful. At three years old, kids can enrol in our Manor Way Minis, and we provide after-school care for all kids. We are dedicated to excellence and hold ourselves to a high standard. Our goal is for children to excel in all aspect of their lives. Children learn, laugh, get dirty, and make friends while engaging in a wide range of engaging activities. When kids graduate from Manor Way, we want them to be capable, prepared, and eager to thrive in secondary education. The Windsor Academy Trust is a group of educational institutions that includes Manor Way Primary Academy. Since joining the Trust in October 2015, we have been eager to share best practises and work in sincere partnership to create something truly unique for the Trust that will benefit all of the kids. Visit us after taking a look at our website. I would be delighted to share Manor Way with you.
