About Featherby Partnership

Welcome to our School's profile. Featherby Partnership School forms part of the Maritime Academy Trust, a multi-academy trust that is committed to making sure that education is meaningful.

Our Trust is made up of 11 primary schools located in Greenwich, Bexley and Kent. Though our schools may be different with their own in-school culture and community spirit, they all work harmoniously and collaboratively together within a curriculum that ensures each and every child is being equipped with leadership and life skills. At Maritime, we do this by empowering schools to drive more meaningful and enjoyable outcomes for children by having great people working for us, who commit to working hard to make an impact whatever the school and whatever the role.

The Featherby Partnership is made up of 2 schools: Featherby Infant and Nursery and Featherby Junior who are working closely together like one school. We are going forward through an exciting period of change with a new leadership team and a collaborative approach to ensure consistency of high expectations for the whole of the Featherby community. At Featherby you will find a true passion for learning, happy and safe children, a purposeful environment and an inspiring curriculum. We believe these are the key ingredients that make a Featherby child stand out from the rest.

Our vision statement is 'Working together to inspire minds through inclusive and creative practice;  aspirations are high for all'.  Underpinning this we have our core values of unity, resilience, responsibility, respect, honesty and trust. We are very much a value lead school which underpins our whole approach. Featherby is an inclusive school that supports learners well and encourages them to be independent and take risks in their learning.

We have high expectations of behaviour at Featherby and promote positive praise amongst learners.

Working in collaboration with each other ensures that we build strong relationships with families, children and the wider community to continuously provide children with great learning opportunities!

So, if you are looking for a place to apply your knowledge and develop your skill set in a friendly and energised environment, then Maritime may be the place for you. All we ask for is a commitment to continue to learn and the flexibility to try new things as we strive to ensure that every single child receives a phenomenal education
