Glade Academy is officially a 'Good' school, and received incredibly positive feedback from inspectors. Every child matters to us, and our staff work as a team to engage children in all areas of learning. We model our core values of Respect, Resilience and Teamwork in every aspect of our work, both within the school and throughout the community. We work hard to build supportive relationships with all our children, recognising and celebrating their achievements with them, and identifying and assisting with their areas of need.
We embrace each child as a whole – academically, socially and behaviourally; seeking to support and develop each of these areas in order to help each child reach their full potential. Our Student and Family Support Team (SaFS for short), and Nurture Group play a key role within this work.
Parents and carers know their children best, which is why we take every opportunity to develop these relationships and involve parents and carers in their child’s learning experience at Glade Academy.
Working together, we strive to create a learning environment which will result in every child at Glade Academy developing confidence, self-esteem, independence, the ability to build and maintain successful, healthy relationships, and a lifelong love of learning.
One of our biggest strengths is that we put our children at the centre of everything we do. Our team of enthusiastic staff go above and beyond to help not only the children, but also each other, to be the best versions of themselves that they can be. We are enthusiastic about learning and it shows in the quality of work produced by our children.
“We are a team and we work as one.”
