Our Vision & Values
Fostering inclusion to ignite brilliance
At Kettering Science Academy, we believe every child can succeed, and it's our responsibility to create the conditions for that to happen.
We don’t just teach children; we know them, challenge them, and support them to grow. When children feel safe, seen, and supported, they thrive. That’s what we work for every day.
Our approach is grounded in a simple truth:
Kids do well if they can.
We are proud to serve a diverse, resilient community. Our commitment to inclusion means working not just for our children, but with their families and community to help them succeed
Our Values
Our values shape everything we do - how we teach, how we lead, and how we support every child to flourish.
We believe in powerful knowledge of the world and of the self. Our curriculum builds deep understanding, curiosity, and confidence.
Every child deserves to know more, do more, and be more, equipped with both academic tools and personal insight to thrive in life.
We believe every child should dream big. Ambition looks different for different children, but one thing is non-negotiable: every child is expected to have a dream and be supported to chase it.
We stretch children to go beyond what they thought possible in learning, confidence, and their future plans.
We teach strength for self and strength for others. That means resilience, empathy, and doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.
Our children grow into strong, kind, principled young people.
Our three school rules bring our values to life:
Be Ready. Be Respectful. Be Safe.
- Being Ready means showing up with purpose - prepared to learn, try, and take pride in your progress.
- Being Respectful means recognising the value in others - listening well, treating people with kindness, and honouring difference.
- Being Safe means looking after yourself and those around you - physically, emotionally, and online.
These aren't just rules; they are how we build a culture where every child can belong, learn, and succeed.
Our three-year strategy and The KSA Way set out how we bring our vision to life across the school. We focus on what matters most:
- Learning: Every child seen, stretched, progressing.
- Wellbeing: Every child known, valued, thriving.
- Safety: Every child safe, settled, secure.
These are not just words. They are our daily standard. They guide every decision, every improvement, and every conversation.
