Welcome to Farringdon Academy

I’m delighted to welcome you to Farringdon Academy—a place where we truly believe that together we live, learn and inspire. Our school is built on teamwork, kindness, and a shared commitment to making a positive difference for every child and every family who walks through our doors.

At Farringdon, we pride ourselves on offering a caring and nurturing environment where children feel valued, respected and listened to. We want every child to enjoy learning, feel safe, and be excited about the opportunities ahead of them. Our broad and balanced curriculum is designed not only to help children achieve, but also to spark curiosity, build confidence, and encourage them to discover and celebrate their talents.

We work hard to ensure our pupils grow into confident, independent and resilient learners—ready to take on challenges, ready to try new things, and ready to shine. Above all, we want our children to know that they are supported, encouraged, and capable of reaching their full potential.

Our school values—Be Kind, Be Ready, Be Resilient, Be Respectful, Be Safe—are at the heart of everything we do. They guide us in our learning, in our relationships, and in the way we look after ourselves and each other.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. I hope it gives you a real flavour of life at Farringdon Academy. If you’d like to know more, please feel free to get in touch or come and see us—we’d be delighted to welcome you.
