Schools at Wintringham
Wintringham Primary Academy
Wintringham Primary Academy is a three-form entry school whose award-winning design is inspired by forest school principles. Embracing principles of nature, the school’s inspirational learning environment prioritises wellbeing and sustainability, with classrooms clustered into group around a woodland grove, connecting pupils to the natural world with an abundance of indoor and outdoor learning spaces.
Through its use of passive ventilation in classrooms and solar shading provided by the extended roof canopy, the school’s design mitigates against the risk of overheating due to climate change. These features also reduce reliance on servicing, minimising energy consumption.
The Academy is managed by Diamond Learning Partnership Trust, which encourages children to be the best that they can be, with creativity and independent learning a cornerstone of its education philosophy. Through good learning practices and a shared love of learning, the Academy equips its pupils to understand the world and find their place within it. Early years’ provision is available from 9am until 3pm Mondays to Fridays during term time.
