Discover Sir Thomas Boughey Academy: A Place to Belong and Achieve

Welcome to Sir Thomas Boughey Academy

A very warm welcome to Sir Thomas Boughey Academy! We are a happy, safe, and ambitious school where every student is known, valued, and encouraged to do their very best.

Our school is a place where curiosity is sparked and achievements are celebrated. Everything we do is guided by our values of excellence, kindness, and respect. These ideas shape our school, help us make decisions, and make sure every child feels a strong sense of belonging.

Helping Every Child to Thrive

We believe that success isn’t about where you start, but about the determination to grow and learn. When students attend school regularly, behave with kindness, and take part in their lessons, they achieve wonderful things. We are here to support them every step of the way.

Our goal is for every child to get an excellent education and have the chance to shine. That’s why we focus on academic success and on building character, confidence, and a strong connection to our community. In 2022, Ofsted visited and agreed that we are a ‘Good’ school in all areas, highlighting our high expectations and the care we show to all our students.

Learning and Growing Together

Our lessons are rich and challenging, designed to make learning exciting and unlock every child's potential. Beyond the classroom, our ‘Boughey Extra’ programme offers a huge range of activities, from sports and the arts to leadership and community projects. It’s a great way for students to discover new passions and grow into well-rounded individuals.

Choosing the right secondary school is a big decision, and we hope our website gives you a sense of what makes our school so special.

We look forward to welcoming you and your child into our family.
