Welcome to our School
Thank you for taking an interest in our school. I hope that you find the information both informative and inspiring. Here at Hill View we are proud of the multi-cultural, welcoming, caring, supportive and secure environment in which all children are valued.
As educators building an exciting, creative and meaningful curriculum, which equips learners for all stages of their education and beyond, is central to our vision here at Hill View. We believe that children should be skilled, confident and articulate as they leave the academy. We teach this through insisting on the ‘4R’s’ (Respect, Resilience, Responsibility and Reflection) in all that we do.
Welcome From The Headteacher
I am delighted to take on the role of Headteacher. Our academy is a vibrant, diverse and welcoming community, which we want to be an outstanding place to learn but also work – where hearts and minds connect. The children of Hill View Academy and the whole Almondbury community deserve the absolute best and I will do everything in my power to deliver that. I want to help create a school, working closely with our amazing staff team and other community leaders, that your children are desperate to attend – a place they feel safe and happy, excited and enthralled. A school they can proudly call their own! I am passionate about giving children opportunities to succeed in not just the core subjects but more widely; drama, music, art and sport for example.

At Hill View we are beginning a project with Modeshift STARS at Kirklees Council to help us think about how our children travel to school and to ensure safe parking around the neighbouring streets. Our new signs are working well to remind parents to drive and park safely.
Year 4 were over the moon to win the @ImpactMAT orienteering competition held at Hill View Academy this week!
Year 1 + 3 visited @YSPsculpture this week to observe sculptures linked to their study of Calder and Miro. They were shocked by the scale of the artwork! #thearts #experiences #aspirations
