Wellington Eagles Primary Academy

Wellington Eagles, part of the Ascend Learning Trust, is a new purpose-built school based within a new housing development in Ludgershall, Wiltshire and caters for pupils from nursery through to Year 6.

At Wellington Eagles Primary Academy we firmly believe that every child in our care has the right to be truly inspired by an engaging and purposeful curriculum. We have based our curriculum around ‘The curious Child’ and we have dedicated staff who are passionate about providing our children with enriching and exciting experiences so that they can all achieve success in their learning journey. We actively encourage our children to be enthusiastic, resilient, collaborative and aspirational and believe that this supports them on their path to becoming life-long learners.

Our Wellington Primaries promote:

Excellence through the rigorous learning of key skills within a rich and broad curriculum.

Holistic learning by developing the whole child.

Innovation in the way that we teach and learn.
