After the Curious Incident of the Crème Egg in ‘24, we now have the Mystery of the Appearing Heroes in ‘26! No idea where they came from but I may use them to celebrate the last English exam being tomorrow. What a lovely gift when things have been challenging 🥰
From the top 25% nationally for similar school attendance to the top 10%!
Another fantastic achievement for @TheWellsAcademy and a reflection of the relentless work that goes into supporting each of our students!
Well done to @NAveyard and our whole team at Wells!
Finally finished the first row of my 2026 bookshelf display as we go all in for the #nationalyearofreading@TheWellsAcademy! Plenty of spaces still to fill though! 📚😍
A really lovely first day back with the students @TheWellsAcademy today and I was very excited to get back to teaching one of my all time favourites to year 9! #highexpectations
What a gloriously busy term @TheWellsAcademy finishing with an unexpected win at the Christmas staff wreath-off!
I look forward to defending my title next year 🤩 🏆
Delivered my last CPD session on EAL bands this morning. Focused strategies without compromising #highexpectations. Everyone belongs, everyone succeeds. Two positive calls home at the end of the day for Band B & Band C students working incredibly hard too. So proud of them! 🤩
You said, we did!
Our students asked for a space to workout and we delivered!
Today a small group of Year 11s got to trial our brand new fitness studio!
We can’t wait to officially open the space for Key Stage 4 next week!
Six short, modern fiction extracts for students to read, explore and enjoy https://t.co/GTW9wYTEgV The final task in each set is a creative writing challenge 📚
Today @Ck1582 talks through some of the strategies we might use for our Band A EAL students @TheWellsAcademy!
Precise, concrete strategies while holding the highest expectations!
EAL is not a homogeneous group!
Great session from @Ck1582 this morning @TheWellsAcademy to understand the journey of proficiency for students that speak English as an additional language.
Taking my five minutes of fame on @TheWellsAcademy staff handbook cover 😄
All jokes aside, I really like having a handbook. Clarity, #highexpectations and a great reference guide for the year
Yesterday I used my second well-being day earned through our scheme at @TheWellsAcademy and managed to match it with my daughter’s inset day. Did a day visit to Butlins,caught the sun and had an incredible time. Felt very lucky to be able to do so 🥰
We’re definitely not winding down @TheWellsAcademy!
Thanks @Ck1582 for a great session on the importance of prior knowledge and context to support reading comprehension, followed by @Mason3Diane moving onto our latest Fortnightly Focus!
Another incredible attendance milestone!
Today we exceeded 96% attendance!
A huge well done to our amazing students, families and staff for making it happen!
Can we raise the bar even higher with a 97% day?! #Ambition
