Our school is proud to be part of Anthem Schools Trust, who together create ambitious and successful schools where every child thrives.
Meadow Park Academy is a vibrant, welcoming school in the heart of a diverse community in the Tilehurst area of Reading, the county town of Berkshire.
We believe primary school days should be one of the most exciting periods of anybody's life, as new skills and knowledge are gained every day. Our teachers deliver an engaging curriculum both inside and outside the classroom, at our very own forest school, providing exciting experiences that make learning fun.

Our Breakfast Club Leaders oversee and contribute to the care, safety, well-being and supervision of our children during our breakfast club, ensuring that the whole breakfast club experience is as positive as possible for all children.
In addition to supporting children’s eating, and promoting health eating, you will be responsible for ensuring all children have the opportunity to access engaging and rewarding play experiences. Happy and playful breakfast times are an important part of the school day allowing children to eat, socialise and experience the benefits of freely chosen play.
