Welcome to Ormiston Cliff Park Infant Academy

We hope that you enjoy finding out about our wonderful school.

Following consultations with parents, carers, staff, governors and the local community, we are pleased to announce that both Cliff Park Infant and Cliff Park Junior Schools officially joined the Ormiston Academies Trust (OAT) family network on 1 December 2018, becoming Ormiston Cliff Park Infant Academy and Ormiston Cliff Park Junior Academy.

East Anglia Schools Trust will therefore be dissolved.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school offices, as we’d be delighted to discuss this further with you. For more information about OAT, please visit their website at www.ormistonacademiestrust.co.uk.

At Ormiston Cliff Park Infant Academy you’ll find a warm and friendly team of staff, children, parents and governors, who are passionate about learning. We all work together to create an exciting and creative curriculum which nurtures and inspires all children to be independent thinkers and learners, as well as making learning at our academy a truly irresistable experience.

The safety and happiness of all the children in our school is of paramount importance because we believe that children will make the most of their learning opportunities when they are safe and enjoying themselves. Each child is an individual with a multitude of talents which we aim to encourage during their time at Cliff Park.

With our ever increasing links to Ormiston Cliff Park Junior Academy, children and families who join us can look forward to sharing in the learning journey from ages 4 to 11. Childhood is a very special time and we look forward to working with all our families to ensure that our children experience the very best opportunities.

Mr Phil Reid
Head of School
