It wishes for pupils to develop in self-confidence and believe in success. The academy has five core values: determination, integrity, ambition, humility and compassion. Leadership plays a key role at Magnus C of E Academy, and students are encouraged to develop these skills with an active Student Council. The secondary school wants all pupils to have an aspiration and runs a careers programme to raise awareness of future opportunities both inside and outside of Newark.

Ofsted

“Every effort is made by leaders and by teachers to raise expectations for pupils in order that they succeed. It is no longer acceptable for them to misbehave, not attend school or not wear their uniform with pride. Every indication is that pupils are responding positively to these expectations and are making improving progress in their learning as a result”.
