Welcome to Four Acres Academy, part of the Little Acorn Trust. I’m very proud of our Academy, the children, the staff, volunteers and wider community that make this school so successful. In the Academy we have high expectations and we work together to provide a stimulating environment where everyone can learn and achieve. Through the best teaching and support we create opportunities for each child to discover and develop their unique talents and abilities. These opportunities include recognizing that children have different styles of learning, providing active learning experiences in our extensive outdoor environment and through trips and visits, offering extra-curricular activities before and after school. We nurture good working relationships with children, parents, carers and wider families. We value our staff team and support them to reach their professional goals.

Vision for the Future

Our vision is for Four Acres’ children and families to be confident, independent lifelong learners; growing in resourcefulness and resilience and prepared to contribute to our global society. We take pride in nurturing children’s confidence, politeness and sense of community.

Working at Four Acres Academy and Children's Centres

Are you, or anyone you know, interested in becoming part of the team at Four Acres Academy, part of the Little Acorn Trust?

The Little Acorn Trust, which was founded in 2014, is a Multi Trust Academy currently with Four Acres Academy but with a plan to expand.  With a focus on learning today for life tomorrow, we offer continuous educational development from age 2-11 and converted to an academy on 1 February 2015 to increase the support and opportunities for our children and families. We are committed to delivering an excellent all round education for every child and provide support for their families to break the link between poverty and underachievement, nurturing every child to be the best that they can be.

We can only achieve our goals with the help of passionate, skilled and dedicated people.  It is demanding working in the context in which we are but also incredibly rewarding.  We are looking for individuals who have the talent to make a difference in an evolving culture and a forward looking Academy.  If you have the vision and commitment, and if what we’re doing resonates with your values and aspirations for our children and their families, then we’d love to hear from you.
