Kings Rise Academy

Welcome to Kings Rise Academy’s website! Based in the heart of the Kingstanding community in Birmingham, we take children from the years of 3-11.

Our Academy partner is the Elliot Foundation. The staff and I, are committed to and aim to work with children, parents, carers and the local community to achieve the best outcomes for each child. We believe our broad and balanced curriculum enriched with visitors, visits and experiences inspires children with a joy of learning.

Working together to ensure children know how to be and feel safe in school and community.  Empowering confidence is key for all in making healthy choices whilst enjoying learning and achieving through personalised and enjoyable activities.  We believe in mutual respect between, children, parents / carers and staff. This is a fundamental value that underpins our vision to ensure all children are given the best experience a primary school can provide.

We aim to inspire children to believe that when we work together we can achieve and succeed!

The staff and I look forward to welcoming you to our academy.
