Thrybergh Academy is a rapidly improving school centred around a dedicated team of people who are working together to achieve our mission of delivering an unashamedly academic and knowledge rich education to our students. 

Everything we do at Thrybergh is underpinned by our passionate belief that an outstanding education is the right of every child, and a determination that such a vision is achievable. We believe in and aspire to provide an inclusive education for all. That is, high expectations of and for all pupils, an insistence on excellent behaviour, equal access to an academically rigorous curriculum taught by highly skilled subject specialists and a sharp focus on high value enrichment opportunities that will enable all students to excel. We will never accept that family background, socio-economic circumstances or prior attainment will inevitably limit young people’s potential and so the profile of our intake will always be a reason for our provision, and never an excuse for our outcomes. 

Our students are entitled to the very best breadth and depth of provision and we are unapologetically ambitious for every student, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs.

Our staff are entitled to an excellent package of professional development both in terms of subject and more general teaching knowledge and skills. Being part of Wickersley Partnership Trust gives us the opportunity to access high quality CPD so that our staff are highly skilled practitioners, no matter their role or responsibility.

Values and vision

Our vision is simple: to be an outstanding school which gives its young people the best life chances through academic success, develops them into excellent members of the community and builds resilience, adaptability and aspiration to equip them with the skills to be successful.

We have one aim: to send every young person into the world able and qualified to play their full role in it.
