Welcome from the Head Teacher
Thank you for visiting our website, and welcome to Warley Road Academy, a school I am proud and privileged to be head teacher of. I hope you find our website informative and inspiring and I would encourage you to come and visit us to see, firsthand, the high-quality teaching and learning environment that makes our school a special place to be.
Here at Warley Road, we provide a happy, stimulating and caring place where all children are valued and provided for. Our child-centred approach builds relationships, confidence and teamwork alongside a commitment to develop every child into resilient and respectful young people who are proud of their academic achievements and personal successes.
Our team of dedicated and skilful staff have high aspirations and want the best for every child in their care. We will always have time to talk about your child’s education and look forward to working with our families and the wider community to nurture readers, writers, problem solvers and thinkers for the future.
I look forward to meeting you and your child.
Best wishes,
Mrs Sarah Tindal
