Welcome to The Southwater Infant Academy!

Choosing the right school for your child is an important decision, and we are proud to offer a warm, nurturing environment where every child is known, valued and encouraged to thrive.

At The Southwater Infant Academy, we believe children learn best when they feel happy, safe and inspired. Our dedicated team of teachers, support staff and trustees work together to create exciting learning opportunities, build strong relationships and help every child develop confidence, curiosity and a love of learning.

Our vision, "Growing, Learning and Succeeding Together", is at the heart of everything we do. We place children at the centre of school life, supporting them to achieve their best academically, socially and emotionally.

Ofsted recognised many of the things that make our school special, noting that:

"The school's extensive grounds, including its woodland provision, are used effectively to enhance learning."

"Pupils are polite and respectful, building positive relationships. They are kind and supportive towards one another."

"Pupils enjoy their learning here. They know that staff provide different types of support to help them."

"Pupils feel safe at school and demonstrate a secure understanding of how to keep themselves safe."
