From the Martlesham Primary Academy
I'm Miss Churchman, the head teacher of Martlesham Primary Academy. Hello. Since June 2017, I have served as the head teacher. The school is going through a very exciting phase right now, and I'm proud to be the head of such a magnificent institution with such enormous potential. Since April 2016, the school has belonged to the REAch2 Academy Trust. The collaboration with other schools within the trust is one of the numerous advantages of working for a multi-academy trust. The trust takes pride in its commitment to the following core values: inspiration, learning, inclusion, leadership, and integrity. At Martlesham Primary Academy, these guiding principles permeate all we do. All of our students will receive outstanding learning chances because to the dedication of me and the team. We introduced the Cornerstones Curriculum in September 2017 and have since witnessed how it has brought learning throughout the curriculum to life. We are extremely delighted to be Martlesham Primary Academy first and foremost.
