It is both a great privilege and a huge honour to be the Principal at Haywood Academy. At Haywood Academy, we aim to inspire our young people. I am determined that the academy delivers an education that reflects our values of being ambitious for our young people to unlock their potential, working together, being committed to our local community, ensuring creativity, innovation and imagination, and respect for others. We want our young people to be optimistic and have integrity and a sense of responsibility. This ethos is grounded in care, a warm friendly atmosphere and a relentless pursuit of excellence for all. In order to achieve this, we have the highest expectations of ourselves, as well as for our young people.
Every child at Haywood Academy is respected as an individual and we promote a ‘can do’ culture to ensure that our young people achieve great things whether through academic success or the field of sports and the arts. The academy is an exciting place to learn and we ensure that our young people have access to a broad curriculum offer and a wide range of enrichment activities. Daily, I am reminded how blessed the academy is to have extremely talented and dedicated staff that always go above and beyond for our young people to ignite their minds, touch their hearts and develop their talents and skills.
We pride ourselves in being committed to ensuring that the academy’s community is at the heart of everything we do. We are very privileged to have wonderful, creative and committed pupils and enjoy excellent relationships between staff, pupils and parents/carers and our local community. This ensures that we continue to build a vibrant, successful and happy school.
