yate academy
Yate Academy is a happy, energetic and welcoming all-inclusive 11 to 18 academy
with a thriving sixth form and a state-of-the-art building with exceptional
facilities. It is an academy where we are as passionate about developing our
staff as we are about developing our students. We are a proud member of the
Greenshaw Learning Trust, a ‘family’ of like-minded schools, that collaborate to
provide mutual support, share their good practice and learn from each other,
whilst retaining and developing their own distinctive character. Our outstanding
GCSE results from summer 2019 have now put us in the top 4% of schools
nationally. This means that we are working towards our goal of the students who
come to Yate Academy having a better chance of success than if they went
anywhere else. These results come from hard work and a focus on really high
expectations of staff and students because we know that this is what they
deserve. Our students are incredible and deserve amazing teachers, quality
lessons and the right levels of support, as well as great opportunities that
enrich their experience at school. Our 'Pathway' allows students to develop
their character as well as their academic journey through school. We give
students the opportunity to take part in enrichment activities such as music and
sport; they have a number of trips, including a Year 7 camp; they perform in
musical productions; they are ambassadors for events; they take part in poetry
competitions; they listen to inspirational speakers at Ivy League Lectures. Come
and visit us if you would like to see any of these things in action!
