The voice of parents and carers at The Leigh Academy.
Helping to achieve the very best for our children.
We are a group of interested parents and carers of students from across The Leigh Academy, who meet once a module to express our views to Academy staff and discuss general issues raised by parents.
All parents and carers are welcome to attend.
Through open discussion at our meetings parents and carers can air their views on general topics related to the Academy, e.g. home learning, behaviour, uniform, clubs.
At least one member of the senior leadership team attends the meetings to update us on Academy news and to listen to our views on current issues.
In addition members of the Leigh Academy staff with responsibilities specific to agenda items to be discussed are invited to come along and listen to our views and contribute to the discussions.
If you have specific issues relating to your own child, please contact your child’s college directly.
We meet once per module at 6:30pm at the Leigh Academy.
If you’re able to come along and join us, please contact Kerry at kezzabates@yahoo.co.uk.

OfstedRelationships are enhanced by the college structure. Students say, and inspectors agree, that there is a close family feel to being in a smaller college unit, and that students enjoy school more because of this.
OfstedStudents participate readily in the wide range of sports, social, art, music and drama activities that the school provides. Many students attend the after school and weekend revision clubs that staff provide.
OfstedThe school organises the wide range of subjects it teaches extremely well, and reviews them regularly, adjusting its provision to meet the changing needs of students.
OfstedTeaching is challenging. It is based on accurate assessment of how well students make progress, what their individual learning needs are, and what kinds of activities will best make sure that they learn well.
OfstedStudents make outstanding progress in English and mathematics. Students’ progress in business, design and technology, ICT and physical education is also outstanding. Students make good progress overall.
