Year 11 & 13 Raising Standards
Following inspection in July 2021 we are pleased that OFSTED found that Aylward Academy continues to be a good school and there has not been a drop in the quality of education and safeguarding on offer for our students. In terms of the safety and wellbeing of our students, the report states that:
“Pupils describe the school as being a ‘community’. They value the friendships that are formed here. Pupils said that bullying was rare.”
“Pupils champion equality and look out for others.”
When reporting on the quality of the educational journey on offer at the school for our students the report states:
“Pupils described the school as ‘ambitious’. This ambition was seen in the work that has gone into developing the curriculum offer since the last inspection.”
“Leaders have high expectations of pupils. These expectations are evident as you walk around the school.”
“Parents and carers speak positively about teachers.”
