A Message From The Headteacher

A warm welcome to our website and thank you for the interest you have shown in Noel Baker Academy. It is my privilege to serve our community as Headteacher. I hope that this website will give you a clear idea of our vision, our values and the opportunities that are available at the Noel Baker Academy.

At Noel Baker Academy we believe passionately that our students are entitled to the same breadth and depth of provision as any pupil attending any of the best schools in the country. This is a vision shared with the LEAD academy trust, of which we are a part. We know that we are on a journey towards excellence and that with persistent effort, hard work and patience amazing things can and will be achieved for and by our young people.

We are proud of our traditional and no-nonsense approach to uniform, teaching and behaviour. We expect our parents and our community to support us in the work that we do and on our journey towards making Noel Baker the best school it can be. As such, we demand respect from our students for their teachers, their peers and their community and in return we respect, encourage, nurture and push them to be the very best they can be.

We value the support and contribution made by parents, governors and the community. We know that parents and carers are vitally important to our children’s success and we expect our parents to stay in contact and involved with the school.

We recognise that we are on a journey, we want Noel Baker Academy to become the school of choice in the local community.

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further information about the school.

Mrs Ann Donaghy

Headteacher
