Welcome to
Hardingstone Academy
At Hardingstone Academy, we strive to grow each and every day, pushing ourselves and supporting others to be the best they can be; whether that's within the classroom, or beyond.
We are teaching our children to be happy lifelong learners, who have an awareness of the world and their role in it, the determination to break through barriers, the ability to think critically and an awareness of how to be a positive global citizen, showing respect for all.
