Values and Vision

Fakenham Academy strives to keep stretching and improving students’ educational outcomes, creating a highly successful learning environment that helps children to gain a quality education and receive the best life chances possible. The secondary school's main aim is “to be completely and utterly outstanding in everything that we do”.

Ofsted Report

“Achievement at GCSE is improving strongly, particularly in English and Science, where teachers explain assessment tasks very clearly and all students, including disadvantaged students, make good progress in lessons. Teaching and learning are good and improving well because staff have well-planned opportunities to develop their teaching expertise and they set demanding targets for students’ achievement. The principal has ensured that new teachers and managers are held to account for students’ achievement through regular monitoring and performance review.”
