About Us

About our school

Riverside Secondary Academy is a one-form-entry primary school serving children from Reception to Year 6. Our community is built on three simple ideas: aim high, take care of one another, and never stop being curious.

Our vision and values

We want every child who leaves us at the end of Year 6 to be confident in themselves, kind to others, and well-prepared for the next stage of their education.

Three values run through everything we do:

  • Ambition — high expectations of effort, behaviour and the standard of children's work.
  • Kindness — looking out for each other and treating everyone with respect.
  • Curiosity — asking questions, having a go, and not being afraid to make mistakes along the way.

Tours run throughout the year

There is no substitute for seeing the school in action. We run guided tours during the school day so you can see learning happening in every classroom.
