the bulwell academy
I am delighted to welcome you to The Bulwell Academy. I am proud to have been
given the opportunity of leading this school into its next era of education in
Nottingham. We are committed to making The Bulwell Academy the academy of
choice, where all students and staff feel proud and privileged to attend. Our
core values for our children are aspire, work hard, be kind. We will encourage
and remind students regarding these values at every opportunity. We are
developing a community in which young people understand the importance of
academic achievement alongside their own personal development and being
accountable for their own actions and decisions as they contribute to the wider
community in many positive ways. It is our vision to ensure every student
develops a strong sense of optimism, confidence, and self-belief. We want to
ensure all students believe in themselves, have the confidence to aim high,
excel in everything they do, and go on to lead happy and successful lives. A
calm and orderly environment in school creates the conditions for children to
thrive and do well academically and personally. We make no apology for having
the highest of standards for everything that we stand for: the highest standards
of education, the highest standards of pastoral support. And that work is well
underway. Our academic outcomes in 2022 firmly placed The Bulwell Academy as the
most improved school in Nottingham. We are proud to be part of the Creative
Education Trust, and to work collaboratively with our colleagues in other
schools, sharing best practice to further enhance the local offer. This is one
of the benefits of being part of such an excellent, forward-thinking Trust. This
collaboration will continue to bring many benefits to Bulwell children in the
form of providing an extended ‘education with character’, enhancing
opportunities for competition, offering wider experiences and broadening
horizons.
