At Beck Row Primary Academy there are equal opportunities for all children. We aim to provide an environment in which all children, including those with special educational needs, can develop physically, intellectually and emotionally at a pace suited to their individual need and where all children have an equal opportunity to access the curriculum in order to realise their full potential.

We encourage, in all members of our school, a code of positive behaviour, which promotes consideration, and tolerance of the needs of others. We believe that every child should feel able to make a valued contribution to school life in order that self-confidence and self-esteem can develop. This takes into consideration the Children and Families Act 2014.
