Welcome to the Aspire Academy Trust
Aspire is a vibrant, highly successful and widely recognised trust determined to raise standards of educational achievement to the very highest levels. We don’t just aim for our children to achieve what is average or expected, but for them to excel both academically and in character.
We live in a global economy that requires our children to be prepared to think both critically and creatively, solve complex problems, and to communicate well. Mastery of the basics: reading, writing, maths and technology is our core purpose, and this sits alongside an emphasis on character education, sports and the arts.
Each school is an integral part of their local community with a clear sense of identity and we value the contribution each of these make to our trust. By working in true partnership, we offer exceptional learning experiences to all our children, so they benefit from the strength that being part of the extended Aspire family brings. If you want to learn more about us, our nurseries, our schools and outdoor education centres, then please visit our website at www.aspireacademytrust.org
We can't wait to meet you!
Aspire Vision
"By working together and inspiring excellence; we enable our children to excel both academically and in character."

Our mission statement is a declaration of the reason for our very existence, our core purpose. It brings clarity and meaning to the trust's overall strategy, which in turn provides the purpose and direction for all staff.

"Nurturing curiosity, resilience, respect and excellence; our children will thrive and live life well."

Our vision statement is inspirational, aspirational, motivational and achievable, capturing the essence of what the children leaving our academies will carry with them into their adult futures.

Aspire Values

Head of School Welcome
Welcome to our Explorers Stage at Nansledan School!
Skol Nansledan strives to provide an outstanding education that ensures pupils can reach their greatest potential and live by life’s highest values. Academic success and character are of equal importance as we prepare our pupils for the future. We have shaped our STEAM curriculum around Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics.

It is in our Explorers Stage, through our play-based STEAM Curriculum, that solid foundation blocks are created for all further learning to take place. This is a crucial stage of exploration and discovery where our children are immersed in learning that is practical, experiential and builds on what
has gone before.

Our main aim for this stage is to give children the broad range of knowledge and skills that provide the right foundation for good future progress through school and life. The children of Nansledan School will be the innovators, educators, leaders and learners of the 21st century and the school motto “Today’s Learners, Tomorrow’s Leaders” reflects this vision.

We look forward to partnering with you as your child begins their school life.
