# Principal's Welcome

### A very warm welcome to Leighton Academy’s website![](https://leighton-academy.schudio.com/images/3G4A0181.jpg)

Leighton Academy is a dedicated and passionate school where the pupils are placed at the centre of key decisions. Our values of working hard and being kind underpin our rigorous and broad curriculum.

Staff and pupils at Leighton have developed our curriculum to ensure that it is underpinned by knowledge and vocabulary rich, with a focus on quality first teaching. Our pupils progress through each stage of early years and primary school to ensure they are high school ready.

We are proud of the developments the school has made in achieving GOOD at our last OFSTED inspection in February 2023 and we embrace opportunities to celebrate the achievements of our amazing pupils.  We welcome visitors to come and look around the school. Please contact the school office to make an appointment.

**Mrs S Thompson
