Paxton Academy is an inspirational  primary school located in Thornton Heath.  In October 2020 we moved into our  brand-new purpose-built school building.

At Paxton, reading is at the heart of our curriculum which  is ambitious and relevant, creative and inclusive. Across the  school, children from Reception to Year 6 are immersed in high  quality text which celebrate their diversity and instils a ‘Love for  Learning’ to succeed in all that they do.

Throughout the curriculum, carefully planned enrichment  opportunities provide a platform to secure prior learning and  build further knowledge and skills. These memorable learning  moments provide the stepping stones for children to become  lifelong learners.

Pupils at Paxton know that no matter your age or where you  live, we can all make a positive impact. Our seven Core Values,  embed an ethos which unites and empowers everyone to gain  confidence, take risks and seize opportunities to excel in an  ever-changing world.
