Team FCAT

Fylde Coast Academy Trust (FCAT) was established

in 2012. Our trust aims to ensure first class learning opportunities for all

young people across the Fylde Coast and across Lancashire. The trust has grown

to include 10 academies with primary, secondary and all through as well as the

Central Services and School Improvement team. Our values of excellence,

integrity and resilience guide us to be the best we can be.

Learners are at the heart of what we do and their outcomes and successes are

what drive us.

As a Multi-Academy Trust we work in partnership

with educational institutions locally to foster collaboration and knowledge

sharing, which is critical to our culture of continuous improvement. Full

information about the trust and its work can be found on our website www.fcat.org.uk

About Mereside Primary Academy

Mereside Primary Academy caters for children

aged 2-11 in a large, modern building located in spacious grounds. As a school

we seek to provide an all-round education for children in a calm and nurturing

environment. We have the highest expectations of pupil attainment, teacher

performance and parental involvement and we encourage everyone to strive for

excellence, in order to achieve potential.

We pride ourselves in knowing our children

incredibly well and use this knowledge to motivate, encourage and care for them

throughout their time at our school. Children here are at the heart of all we

do and we continually strive to help each child find their strengths and

talents so that they will flourish and be challenged. “The

school is ambitious for pupils to achieve well” (Ofsted July 2024)

At Mereside, our motto is ‘Learning Together,

Achieving Together’ which demonstrates our commitment with pupils, parents,

staff, governors and the local community to nurture a culture of lifelong

learning for all. Our children have access to creative, sporting, musical and

cultural opportunities with a variety of extra-curricular activities. “This school is central to the local community that it

serves. Pupils are happy and enjoy coming to school…pupils trust their teachers

to care for them, including when they need comfort or reassurance” (Ofsted July

2024)

All of our work revolves around our three school ‘bees’ which includes

our own hive and is incorporated throughout our Mereside Way which both

children and staff live by. ‘Be kind, Be safe, Be ready’ is implemented every

minute, every day and supported by our very strong pastoral team who ensure

that the care, guidance and supp
