Welcome from the Head Teacher

Welcome to La Fontaine Academy, a successful and diverse primary school located in the heart of Bromley.

At La Fontaine, we want our children to build memories, thrive in life and change the world! We pride ourselves on our inclusive ethos, and understanding of each individual. Through this, we seek to ensure that every child that goes through our school can meet, or exceed, their potential by the time they move onto their next stages in life.

Everything we do is underpinned by our research-based curriculum and pedagogical principles. Each subject has been designed with a clear purpose and has a carefully planned progression from Reception through to Year 6.

We have high expectations of our children, and encourage them to work hard and to celebrate their achievements.

We believe in educating the whole child, providing a range of academic and cultural experiences and have a strong focus on Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE), which enables children to develop resilience and supports their wellbeing.

Everyone at La Fontaine views themselves as a life-long learner and we have a wonderful staff team who are always looking to develop their skills and knowledge in order to deliver the best possible education for our children. We are extremely proud of our school and, together, we know that we can provide our children with the world-class education that they deserve.

If we do our jobs well, the children of La Fontaine Academy will go on to be the leaders of our future society, and they will do so with knowledge, enthusiasm and compassion.

Our website provides a wealth of information about the school, and visits are warmly welcomed. 

I look forward to welcoming you to La Fontaine Academy!
