Welcome
to Kippax Ash Tree Primary School

Welcome to Kippax Ash Tree. We are proud members of the Brigshaw Learning Partnership Multi-Academy Trust.

At Kippax Ash Tree we are passionate about developing children's powerful voices to enable them to make meaningful choices for a life of opportunity and success.

At the heart of our mission is a deep commitment to building a strong sense of belonging for every child. We believe that by working together with families and the wider community, we create an environment where all students feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.

Our passion lies in developing the powerful voices of our children. We equip them with the skills and confidence to make meaningful choices, preparing them for a future full of opportunity and success. We strive to instill a "whatever it takes" attitude in everything we do, ensuring that each child has the support they need to thrive, regardless of the challenges they may face.

We are dedicated to creating a safe space where every child is celebrated, inspired, and given the tools to succeed. Together, with the partnership of families and community, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of our students. At Kippax Ash Tree belonging, voice, and success are at the forefront of everything we do.

As Head of School, I am dedicated to ensuring that every child receives the best possible start to their educational journey. I understand the importance of these formative years and the profound impact they have on a child’s future. My commitment is to provide a nurturing, engaging, and challenging environment where each child feels supported, valued, and inspired to reach their full potential. I work closely with our dedicated staff team to foster a culture of care and high expectations, making sure that every child’s unique needs are met. Your child’s success and well-being are at the heart of everything we do, and I am excited to be part of their journey towards a bright and fulfilling future of opportunity and success.
