The Richmond Hill Academy

Put simply, we want every child at Richmond Hill to flourish; to be safe, happy, to experience a wide range of learning opportunities and to leave our school engaged and confident learners. We want to be firmly rooted in our local community and to make a positive contribution to the lives of others. We want parents to send their children to Richmond Hill Academy with full confidence that they will make excellent progress, be loved and be excited to come to school each day. I know that the staff of RHA are fully committed to ensuring that every child receives the very best education and care; we continue to work tirelessly to ensure the school continues to thrive and develop.
