'Western House Academy -
where every opportunity shapes a life'
A Welcome from Mrs Snowden
We are a thriving three-form entry school located in the heart of Cippenham, on the western edge of Slough. As one of ten schools within The Park Federation Academy Trust, we benefit from the strength and collaboration of a larger network while maintaining a close-knit, family-centred community feel.
Our school is a vibrant tapestry of cultures and aspirations. We celebrate the rich diversity of our community and nurture our children to become caring, respectful young citizens who actively participate in all aspects of life. Our core values are woven into the fabric of everything we do. We're incredibly proud of the warm and welcoming atmosphere you'll experience when you visit us!
At Western House Academy, we firmly believe in the unique strengths and gifts of every child. We provide a calm, stimulating, warm, and inspiring learning environment where children can flourish. We are a responsive school, embracing the natural flow of life and using every opportunity to drive continuous improvement and achieve even better outcomes for our children.
We understand the vital role parents and carers play in a child's education. We forge strong partnerships with families, working together to provide every possible opportunity for our children to succeed. Our wide-ranging and flexible provision is carefully designed to meet the individual needs of our children and their families.We are all immensely proud to be part of the Western House Academy family. We are committed to a journey of continuous growth and will never stop striving for excellence. We hold high expectations for all members of our community and together, we are building a place where our children develop the knowledge and values they need to thrive in life.

Our Vision For Our Children
By embedding our values-based, high expectation approach to learning and behaviour, we believe in developing the whole-child. What do they need today? What do they need tomorrow? We strive to give children the knowledge and skills to achieve their full potential and be successful lifelong learners who value their emotional health and wellbeing. WHA is a place where no time is wasted and where 'every opportunity shapes a life'.
Our Values
At WHA we believe that children can achieve personal excellence through the teaching and modelling of core values and skills. These values will drive and shape every aspect of school life, and have taken the place of school 'rules'.
It's about more than rules - it's about making good choices. Values give a set of aspirational guidelines within which children must choose the right behaviour in any context.
What is the Federation's Vision?
The Park Federation
The Number One School of Choice for Local Families
Our schools are safe, happy places where creativity is prized. We value and nurture excellent behaviour, determination and ambitious academic standards. Professionalism, humility and service to the community guide everything we do.
Please join us in making our federation a springboard to success!
