Samuel Ryder Academy
Welcome to
Samuel Ryder Academy
Our ethos is one of challenge, fulfilling potential
and both creating and taking full advantage of a
wide variety of educational opportunities. We are
aiming to be at the cutting edge of educational
innovation without losing sight of the traditional
values that need to be the bedrock of any
successful educational establishment.
For children to maximise their potential and become successful students they must
feel happy, safe and supported. From these foundations children are able to become
creative, confident, resourceful, resilient and motivated students, willing to question
and take risks. Frequently, these attributes will allow students to achieve more than
they thought they were capable of.
Central to the vision of the Samuel Ryder Academy is the shared belief of the entire
community that our young people have the right to a transformational educational
experience that enables them, no matter their starting point, to fulfil their potential and
realise their ambitions. The values of Samuel Ryder Academy are summed up in the
ACE: Achievement, Care and Excellence.
Buntingford First School
The ACE underpins everything that we do and provides a secure basis for all we strive
to accomplish.
Achievement in academic, artistic, sporting, cultural and other forms with a focus
on teaching and learning.
Care for students, staff and others within and beyond the Academy community.
Excellent standards, manners, honesty, personal integrity and uniform.

quickly than we can imagine and our children are on an exciting journey. It is our
privilege at Samuel Ryder Academy to help them arrive at their destination as the
best young men and women they can possibly be.
