At The Riverview Academy, we pride ourselves on creating an environment rooted in care, warmth, and genuine nurture – a school where every individual is seen, valued, and supported.
We are a school that:
Offers a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere for all
Is filled with happy, enthusiastic children who love to learn
Is deeply committed to helping every child achieve their very best
Is supported by dedicated, skilled staff who care about each child’s journey and are passionate about teaching and learning
Delivers a broad, balanced curriculum, rich in meaningful opportunities and real-life experiences
Children are at the heart of all we do. Every decision we make is shaped by their needs, wellbeing, and aspirations.
We want our pupils to thrive – to feel safe, nurtured, confident, and proud of who they are and what they can achieve.
We are a connected community, one that reaches beyond the school gates to engage with and respect the wider world. Our children grow into thoughtful, responsible global citizens, ready to make a difference.
At Riverview, our values are more than just words – they are woven into everyday life. They guide how we learn, how we treat one another, and how we grow.
Kindness. Excellence. Respect. Resilience. Responsibility. Teamwork.
These are the values that shape our school – and the young people within it.
~ Mr Siggs, Headteacher
