About Offa's Mead Academy
- Offa's Mead Academy
- Beachley Road, Sedbury, Near Chepstow
- Gloucestershire
- NP16 7DT
- United Kingdom
Offa’s Mead Academy is located in Sedbury, a village in the Forest of Dean district of west Gloucestershire, on the eastern bank of the River Wye, facing the beautiful Welsh town of Chepstow. We are close to Beachley Barracks and the academy draws 40% of its pupils from the families of service personnel based at the barracks. The current number on roll is 127. Children start their time with the academy after the early years foundation stage, joining part-way through the school year. In addition, many pupils also leave part way through the school year so we have an exciting challenge of ensuring every student who comes through our gates gets the best education!
In December 2018, following a full inspection, we were confirmed as an ‘inadequate’ school by Ofsted. Since that point, the Trust and the Offa’s Mead team have worked tirelessly to bring about change through building educational excellence.
We value and respect the views of the children. The Pupil Leadership Team (PLT) gives the children a voice to express their opinions and make decisions which affect the whole school. For example, choosing books to purchase after our fundraising. Taking care of our children and encouraging them to develop a positive attitude is an essential element of the work we do at Offa’s Mead.
Pupil behaviour is a strength at Offa’s Mead Academy. They are advocates for the academy and work hard to challenge themselves in the classroom. They are supported through the curriculum, with schemes such as Jigsaw, as the academy develops every child holistically, whilst also championing the importance of educational outcomes.
At Offa’s Mead Academy we provide a broad and balanced curriculum.
