Year 7 have continued to flourish as we progress through the final module of the academic year. They have settled into academy life with confidence, demonstrating increasing maturity, resilience, and enthusiasm for learning. Their positive attitude, strong engagement in lessons, and growing involvement in extracurricular activities reflect the solid foundations they’ve built since September. We are incredibly proud of the progress they’ve made—both academically and socially—and look forward to seeing them finish their first year at Strood Academy on a high.

Year 8 students have shown impressive growth as they near the end of their second year at Strood Academy. They have developed greater independence, embraced higher expectations, and continued to build on the strong foundations laid in Year 7. Their commitment to learning, increased participation in academy life, and positive contributions to the school community have been clear throughout this module. We are proud of their progress and look forward to seeing them carry this momentum into Year 9.

Year 9 have demonstrated maturity and focus as they approach the end of this academic year, showing they are ready for the exciting challenge ahead. Throughout this final module, they have continued to make strong academic progress, while also growing in confidence and responsibility. As they prepare to begin their GCSE journey next year, we are proud of the solid foundation they have built and are confident they will rise to the opportunities and expectations of Key Stage 4.
