At Easington Academy we have high expectations of our students and staff. We believe students have the right to expect a first class education, delivered by teachers who are committed to making learning challenging and rewarding.
Ours is a caring community, one based on mutual respect, a school where students feel safe and supported throughout their time with us. The emphasis on good behaviour means that lessons are taught in an ordered and encouraging learning environment. Students are treated as individuals and we recognise and celebrate their different abilities.
Students will have access to the latest technology and will benefit from innovative teaching strategies, ones designed to engage their interest and make their learning experience a positive one. They will also be given the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of extra-curricular activities. In this we hope to ensure that all of our students achieve their full potential, academically and socially.
When our students leave us, we want them to have enjoyed their five years at Easington Academy. This means leaving with the best possible results and taking with them a store of happy memories.
