Welcome from Head teacher

On behalf of our entire school community, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Washington Academy.

All our staff at Washington are fully committed to ensuring that all our students have the opportunity and experiences that will ensure our young people are happy and successful in their next steps. We are dedicated to developing our students to have an in-built resilience and that they are adaptable to any future challenges they may face. 

This opportunity is given to our students by ensuring the highest standard of inclusive education to support their learning across all subject areas, coupled with extensive pastoral care, premised upon strong relationships, and knowing each of our students as the unique individuals they are.  We value the personal development of every child and ensure everyone accesses our personal development programme, that includes excellent careers advice and guidance from early on in our students’ time at Washington Academy.

We have the highest expectations for our students, staff, parents/carers and governing body in working with us as a true community to continually seek best practice and improve the provision for our students, and in turn are extremely proud of all of our students.

Washington Academy is proud to be part of Consilium Academies trust, of which we are dedicated to working towards the Consilium mission of 'Enriching Lives' and 'Inspiring Ambitions.'

If you would like to find out more about our school, please do have a look at other parts of this site, which are full of useful information. If you have any further questions – we look forward to hearing from you!
