About Hall Road Academy

**Please scroll to the bottom of this page to view our live vacancies**

Hall Road Academy is a very special learning environment serving the communities of North Hull. Our pupils are engaging, take pride in their work and are ready to learn – all we need is you!

We are a traditional academy with years of life and experience that gives the academy its unique atmosphere and place in the community.We are a busy and enthusiastic learning environment where there is always much to do, see and learn.

Our Values and Ethos

Our Vision:

Together, we aspire to become a learning organisation capable of continuous improvement. A place where:

  • Pupils attain and achieve through a vibrant and relevant child centred and theme based curriculum.
    All staff are confident, valued and motivated to give their best and are renowned for the excellent quality of teaching, learning, care, welfare and support which they provide.
  • Barriers between the academy and the community are removed.

In a caring and loving environment, our staff provide an opportunity for each child to blossom in their educational experiences. We offer children the chance to embrace a variety of learning skills and environment experiences so that they may grow in both dependent and independent learning - enjoying listening to others to gain knowledge and expressing formed opinions of their own.

Teaching is not just the imparting of knowledge on a set subject but, understanding that a child is very much surrounded by an inescapable life environment. We see that education is for embracing the whole of life, seeing each "child's world" as a unique place to grow as a person in their thinking, feeling, reasoning, spiritual outlook and moral values.

Our Curriculum

We see that the curriculum should be shaped jointly by staff and learners to meet individual needs with a value placed on learning from experience. We see that access to the whole curriculum is a child's right all throughout their education. We seek to remove any barriers so that each child is able to embrace the whole curriculum and, therefore, meet their educational potential.

At Hall Road we provide children with a carefully designed curriculum which is based on high quality learning experiences that prepare them both academically and socially to be the best that they can be both now and in the future.
