From the Abbey Hey Primary Academy
A consortium of schools known as United Learning is dedicated to giving all students a top-notch education that will enable them to advance academically and flourish in life. Our strategy is supported by a sense of moral obligation and a commitment to working in the best interests of young people everywhere while supporting colleagues in their pursuit of excellence and acting with integrity in all our interactions both inside and outside the organisation. This concept can be summed up as "the best in everyone." the fortitude to stand by our beliefs and take calculated risks for the right causes. We conduct oneself with respect in all we do. the desire to look for opportunities, identify good things, and develop one's skills and interests. In collaboration with United Learning staff members and students from all over the nation, we chose our core beliefs. Our aim to put the young people we serve at the centre of everything we do is reflected in the tale of our values. We work as a single organisation to combine the greatest aspects of the independent and public sectors, honouring both traditions and benefiting from both. Each of our schools, in our opinion, should be unique and is dedicated to forging its own identity and basic principles as institutions that encourage charity, service, and compassion. In schools that are completely inclusive and accept and respect students and staff of all faiths and none, this ethos is our reflection of our Christian traditions.
