ETONBURY ACADEMY

Etonbury Academy is an extended secondary school with over 1150 pupils, located on the edge of the town of Arlesey, close to the Bedfordshire/Hertfordshire border and excellent train links to London. We provide a broad and extensive curriculum for children aged 9 to 18 years, including Sixth Form. We are delighted to achieve consistently high GCSE results and have just celebrated an outstanding set of A-Level results in our Sixth-Form.

In our most recent Ofsted report (April 2025) inspectors said the following:

“Etonbury Academy is a welcoming and nurturing place to learn. Pupils enjoy coming to school and attend regularly. They value the warm, supportive relationships they build with staff. This helps them to feel safe, cared for and known as individuals. Pupils behave with great courtesy and respect. They hold doors open, listen carefully to each other in conversations and demonstrate consistently high levels of kindness towards others.”

We are a local school with a global outlook, preparing young people for the future. Our facilities, resources and specialist teaching are second-to-none. So to is our commitment to pastoral care.

This is a place where every child is safe, secure and supported. Every single member of our learning community – students, staff and parents – are part of our success story.

Our younger students join us in Year 5 at Etonbury Juniors, and move up to our secondary school in Year 7. With separate buildings for junior, secondary and Sixth Form, we provide a nurturing environment for all pupils to receive an excellent Etonbury Experience. We know our children, and together we make Etonbury Academy a school to be proud of. 

We provide professional development for aspirational staff and access the teaching school, colleges and Apprenticeship Levy to make this happen. Our proven track record gives you every reason to consider Etonbury as the right school for you.
