Lea Forest Primary Academy
Lea Forest is a leading school in Birmingham, graded OUTSTANDING by Ofsted in December 2022. It has an enriched, relevant, engaging and innovative curriculum which enables children to uncover a world of possibilities - inspiring each and every child to reach true academic brilliance. By embracing the role that Lea Forest plays within the wider community fostering positive partnerships with parents in and beyond the walls of the school - into the streets, into the town and far beyond - ensuring children receive an excellent education, in every classroom, every day.
It is our aim that by the time the children leave Lea Forest Primary Academy to embark on the next stage of their education, they are equipped with the academic knowledge and skills, and have developed the personal attributes needed to enable them to become successful citizens of the future.
We want our children to be happy and feel safe in school; extending their learning, creating challenges in a broad and balanced, experience-rich curriculum.
