Values and Vision

The Gainsborough Academy aims to encourage students to be a part of the local community. The school’s vision is “high aspirations, high expectations”. Teachers prepare the pupils for life after school. They will also help students make excellent progress, no matter what background they come from or what their starting point in life was. Students have the opportunity to take part in extra-curricular activities. This includes performing arts and trips to universities. 

Ofsted report 

“Improvement in pupils’ conduct through the ‘positive discipline’ approach was seen in many lessons. Most students are polite around the school. n Outcomes in drama, construction and engineering are strong. The school has arranged support from the local teaching school alliance and, more recently, from a grammar school, especially in English. The curriculum is broad and balanced. Pupils are taught how to keep safe from the dangers of radicalisation and extremism through the school’s personal, social, health and education programme and assemblies. Leaders have a good understanding of what the risks are in the local community and all staff have undergone ‘Prevent’ training.”
