Where ambition, equity and opportunity come to life every day.

Queen Eleanor Academy is a school on a journey — a journey shaped by values, driven by purpose, and powered by people who believe in making a difference. Whether you're a prospective teacher, support staff member, or a family considering a place for your child, Queen Eleanor is a place where children are seen, supported, and stretched — and where adults are trusted, valued, and developed.

We are proud to be part of the Creative Education Trust, whose values of Ambition, Equity, and Opportunity are not just words on a wall — they are the foundation of every decision we make.

Ambition

At Queen Eleanor, ambition is about hope and possibility. We want every child to leave us with a strong sense of self-worth, and the confidence to shape their own future. Our curriculum is rich, challenging and carefully designed to build knowledge, character, and independence. For staff, ambition means having the freedom to grow, the space to innovate, and the support to take the next step in your career — whether you're at the start of your journey or an experienced practitioner.

Equity

We are proudly inclusive. We know that fairness doesn’t mean treating everyone the same — it means removing barriers so every child can succeed. Our staff are passionate about identifying what each learner needs and working together to provide it. We believe in high expectations and high support — for pupils and for the professionals who serve them. This is a school where no one is written off and where every child’s background is valued, not viewed as a limitation.

Opportunity

Children at Queen Eleanor are exposed to more than just knowledge — they are immersed in experiences that enrich, excite, and expand their world. From carefully curated personal development programmes to role models, creative arts, oracy, sport and space to lead, our children learn to participate, speak up and contribute. Our staff are offered the same: professional development that is embedded in coaching, collaboration, and shared excellence, not top-down compliance.

Our Culture

Queen Eleanor is a school that is changing — and changing fast. We are restoring pride, rebuilding relationships and re-establishing our place at the heart of our community. Led with care and clarity, we are growing a culture built on credibility, consistency and compassion.

We don’t pretend everything is perfect — but we do promise that everything we do is purposeful. If you are a parent looking for a school that knows your child, or a professional looking for a team you can trust, you will find both here.

Join Us

Queen Eleanor is more than a place to work — it is a place to thrive. It is a place where values are lived, voices are heard, and every child — and every adult — is known by name and by story.

If you're ready to make a difference, we’d love to meet you.
