“Everybody working together to be the best they can be.”
The purpose-built school is based within the new housing development in NEQ (North East Quadrant), Tidworth and caters for pupils from Reception through to Year 6.
At Wellington Lions Primary Academy we firmly believe that every child in our care has the right to be truly inspired by an engaging and purposeful curriculum. We have dedicated staff who are passionate about providing our children with enriching and exciting experiences so that they can all achieve success in their learning journey. We actively encourage our children to be curious and believe that this supports them on their path to becoming life-long learners.
We support our children to grow into positive, well rounded citizens and work alongside them to encourage perseverance, respect, independence and courage through being daring. By instilling these values we give children the chance to be the best they can be and allow them to be proud of all that they achieve, both academically and personally.
Wellington Lions offers an education that promotes:
Excellence through the rigorous learning of key skills within a rich and broad curriculum.
Holistic learning by developing the whole child.
Innovation in the way that we teach and learn.
Collaboration with parents and carers, the Ascend Learning Trust Family, the military community and local primary schools.
Wellington Lions Primary Academy is truly delighted to be part of the Ascend Learning Trust. Since joining in April 2020, our school has benefited enormously from the Trust’s culture of collaboration – working alongside partner schools within a supportive community has enabled us to progress confidently from a period of growth into our next phase of development. It’s a real pleasure to belong to a family of schools that values kindness, aspiration, respect, dedication, and integrity, not only through enriching our curriculum and shared staff development, but also through a whole‑school ethos captured by the Trust’s motto: “Together We Belong, Believe, Become”
The Ascend Learning Trust is a forward‑thinking multi‑academy trust established in May 2017 (originally under the name Royal Wootton Bassett Academy Trust). It exists to provide strategic leadership, robust governance, and shared services that support educational excellence across all its member schools. Its mission is to foster a culture of compassion and inclusivity, high expectations, and world‑class education, grounded in its values of compassion, aspiration, respect, dedication, and integrity. As a Trust, it not only oversees performance, staffing, and resource allocation, but also champions collaboration, professional development, and innovation – for the benefit of every child, including our curious, courageous learners at Wellington Lions.
