It is with great pleasure that I extend a warm welcome to you from Noel-Baker Academy. I feel incredibly privileged as Headteacher to represent the incredible work undertaken by my staff in nurturing and developing the ambitions and interests of the children of our community. At Noel- Baker, I truly believe that every child is encouraged to be extraordinary.
My staff and I are dedicated to fostering an environment of excellence and high aspirations. Our mission is to ensure that each student is provided with the opportunities and support necessary to fulfil their individual potential. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of education, nurturing a culture of ambition, and instilling a lifelong love of learning.
Every member of our school community, is challenged daily to be the best version of ourselves – be that through our conduct, our endeavour or our personal resilience. Success rarely comes easily, and the most worthwhile achievements are earned through hard work and dedication. That is not to say that learning should not be fun, and we aim to encourage intellectual curiosity by delivering a rigorous and enriching curriculum. We set high expectations for all our students, encouraging them to strive for excellence in all that they do.
Our core values of Lead, Empower, Achieve, and Drive underpin our focus upon developing well rounded and successful young people. Through our curriculum and wide extra-curricular offer, we aim to build character, and I am proud to lead a school in which integrity, empathy and social justice are as highly prized as academic outcomes.
We recognise that the partnership between home and school is fundamental to the success of our students. We value open communication and collaboration with parents and guardians, and we are eager to work together to support your child’s educational journey. When trusted adults show genuine interest in a child’s ambitions, interests and achievements they attend more frequently, they progress more rapidly, and they thrive in school. Parental involvement and encouragement are vital in helping us achieve our shared goal of providing the very best educational experience for all our children.
If you want to find out more about what we do at Noel-Baker, I encourage you invest a little time to explore our website and see a small portion of the incredible achievements of our wonderful students. Hopefully, you will gleam a little of what makes our school so special.
Esse extraordinarium!
Paul Greenough – Headteacher

🚨 Attention Parents and Carers of Noel-Baker Academy! 🚨
Is an e-scooter on your Christmas list? 🎄 Before you make that purchase, we want to remind you that e-scooters can only be used legally on private land. Over the past year, Derbyshire officers have seized over 600 e-scooters that were ridden illegally on public paths and roads, and these have been destroyed, with parts recycled where possible.
Thanks to our proactive approach, the number of injuries related to e-scooter collisions has halved! 💪 Inspector Lee Welsby emphasises the importance of community safety: “We’re addressing concerns raised in community meetings and surveys about e-scooters causing risks on pavements and being involved in crime.”
Please do your research before adding e-scooters to your Christmas shopping list, ensuring all presents can be used safely and legally!
Please also note that e-scooters are not allowed to enter the school grounds. As a school we work closely with the community team, if any e-scooters are seen within the campus our Police Community Officer will be informed!
For more information, visit the Derbyshire Alert website and search ‘e-scooters’.
