It is with great pride and pleasure that I introduce you to East Leake Academy
(ELA). At ELA we believe passionately that every young person should have access
to a broad and balanced curriculum, so they can foster a true love for learning
allowing them to reach their full potential. We also believe that students
should develop into strong role models who can contribute positively as
outstanding citizens within the wider community. We also strive towards creating
a culture of respect and consideration for others at ELA, so that students
develop a strong moral compass. Everything that we do at the academy is
underpinned by our core values – we empower, we respect, we care – which are
firmly central to our academy’s ethos. We deliver on our beliefs through
providing a robust curriculum and high-quality teaching and learning focused
around developing knowledge and skills, as well as creating opportunities for
students to explore learning deeply through developing debate, problem solving,
critical evaluation and communication skills. Alongside this our excellent
pastoral programme is designed to allow further development of leadership,
organisation, resilience, initiative and communication skills in readiness for
future lives beyond school. We empower We respect We care The academy as a
result has a strong track record of academic success at both GCSE and A Level,
and consistently outperforms national averages in a wide range of performance
measures. Life at ELA however is about much more than strong academic
performance. Year after year, our students never cease to amaze us with their
passion to go above and beyond in a wide variety of disciplines such as English,
sport, drama, music, enterprise, science, technology and maths, to name but a
few. Our personalised approach and rich curricular and extracurricular offer
make ELA a very special and positive place to learn. We really hope you choose
