“We have a friendly, caring school with high expectations and ambition for our pupils. “
Mrs Z Jepson, Headteacher
At Waddington All Saints Academy our aim is to provide a learning environment and experience that enables children to thrive and develop as learners and leaders.
We want to inspire and motivate all children to have a wonderful desire to learn and grow as individuals and as a collective. To empower and support them to become life-long learners who are prepared to take risks, learn with growing independence and develop skills that enable them to fly high academically, socially, emotionally and physically.
We want our pupils to thrive as a result of our ambition for them to succeed beyond their own expectations and through the identification and removal of their barriers to learning and achievement.
Through the delivery of irresistible learning opportunities and rich experience, we strive to give children the ability and confidence to work and speak as experts; progressively building transferable knowledge and understanding that is memorable, broad and empowering. This, alongside the relentless drive for high quality outcomes and progress, underpinned by excellence and pride, exemplifies our ambition for our pupils.
We expect pupils to behave as responsible good citizens and role models, supporting them to understand the choices and behaviours that will enable them to make positive decisions. We do this within a culture of mutual respect for all within our community, encouraging kindness, tolerance and care for others
We measure our success in our ability to support pupils to have the skills, knowledge, personal qualities and drive to be successful within the next stages of their life and beyond and to make a positive contribution to life in modern Britain.
As a RISE Reception Network Lead School, we support primary schools by sharing effective practice, building professional networks and contributing to the government’s aim that 75% of children receive a Good Level of Development by 2028.

In our recent Ofsted report, inspectors praised the unwavering ambition staff at the school hold for every child, noting that our inspiring motto – “If they have wings, why make them walk?” – is truly lived out in the day-to-day experience of pupils.
Headteacher Mrs Jepson said: “Our mission has always been to help each pupil find their ‘wings’ – this ambition will continue to be the driving force behind everything we do.”
Settling In and Discovering What Makes Us Special!
Our Reception children have settled into school life so beautifully and are already showing independence in their learning.
The children have been exploring the carefully planned provision within our learning environment, engaging and exploring with a range of activities.
This Autumn Term, our topic is "Ourselves… Happy, Healthy Me! What Makes Me Special?" Through stories and learning experiences within provision, the children have been learning about themselves, their families, their feelings and the unique qualities that make each one of them special.
We are so proud of how well they have settled into Reception and can't wait to see their confidence and learning continue to grow.

Adventure up the beanstalk: Inspiring our young authors!
Our Year 1 children have been inspired to become authors after exploring the wonderful story of Jack and the Jelly Beanstalk.
The excitement reached new heights when the children arrived to discover a giant beanstalk growing in their classroom! They were absolutely astounded and full of questions and ideas about where it had come from and where it might lead.
Using their imaginations, the children have been busy writing about the characters and setting from the story. They have worked hard to use exciting and descriptive vocabulary to bring their writing to life, creating stories filled with adventure and wonder.
We are so proud of our young writers for their enthusiasm, creativity, and fantastic storytelling skills.
