It has been a wonderful first week back in the academy following the half-term break. We have seen exceptional work in lessons and it is great that this has been recognised through our Excellence in Written Work rewards programme. Congratulations to this week's winners! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

We have had a positive start to the week! Our students are working hard in their learning and we have seen great examples of this during lesson visits! Also, our teachers are completing Celebration of Effective Practice Week, visiting lessons and spotlighting excellent teaching.

We have had another week with strong numbers of Excellence in Written Work rewards in the academy! Congratulations to our five winners from across the school and well done to every student that has been celebrated for their written work this week - you should be very proud! 🌟

Y10 Mock Interviews today. Proud doesn't cut it - they were exceptional. Some quotes from our partners
"I'd employ him tomorrow"
"I've only known her a few minutes and I'm so proud!"
"It's clear how much time they've spent preparing"
"Better than many candidates I see day-to-day"

Very pleased to see phones in school will now be banned by law.

This creates a very clear position from which schools can discuss this issue with parents, lessening any potential diminishing of relationship between school and home.

School is where friendships form, teamwork develops, and positive social skills grow. Don’t miss the moments that shape who you become.

It has been a positive first week back after the Easter holidays, with lots to celebrate both in the classrooms and more widely around school! One of the things we have to celebrate is our five Excellence in Written Work award winners from this week - congratulations! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We had a wonderful day at Disneyland Paris yesterday! The students had an excellent time, with lots of different rides, after we started the day all riding ‘It’s a small world’ together. It was a perfect last full day in Paris with more sunshine and lots of happy students! 🇫🇷

[The Dukeries Academy @DukeriesAcademy]

After a very early start this morning, our Paris Trip journey is progressing well! We enjoyed some sunshine on the ferry deck before arriving in Calais. Now, we are en route to Paris! 🇫🇷

From Year 7 to Year 11, we are so proud of how hard all of our students are working to demonstrate our Excellence standard within their written work. Congratulations to all of our winners from this week! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Yule never believe how festive it was in school today! Between Christmas jumper day, Christmas dinner in the canteen and the Christmas Showcase, it's been tree-mendous. We are waiting to hear from our friends at @SuttonAcademy to see which school won the staff jumper competition!
