We are proud to be an academy school working in partnership with Symphony Learning Trust. Fairfield has been part of the local community for over 50 years.

With this in mind, we believe that behaviour must be consistent and fair. Our approach — The Fairfield Way — sets out clear expectations, actively teaches positive behaviour, and celebrates success. At its heart are three simple golden rules:
The best way to experience Fairfield is to see it in action — please contact us to arrange a visit.
