About Sharnbrook Academy
Welcome to Sharnbrook Academy
Excellence, Care and Opportunity for All
Sharnbrook Academy is a very successful 11-18 comprehensive school located in North Bedfordshire, with a longstanding reputation for high student achievement. We pride ourselves on our rigorous academic standards, good behaviour and excellent teaching and learning.
As one of the newest members of the Meridian Trust, Sharnbrook is part of a successful family of regional schools with shared values, a track record of achievement, and a wide network of support and expertise.
We believe that all students can achieve and we encourage them to become lifelong learners, challenging and supporting them to realise their potential. As a result, our students regularly attain excellent examination results at the end of Key Stage Four. Our students’ GCSE results in 2022 were well above the national average which is testament both to the hard work and attitude of our students, and the tireless efforts of our expert teaching staff.
At Sharnbrook, we believe there is much more to school life than just examination grades. As a large school, we are privileged to have great facilities. Sharnbrook offers a large and impressively equipped campus that enables our students to enjoy opportunities and experiences that are not available elsewhere.
Our curriculum is broad and rich, and extensive extracurricular opportunities are available. Students are encouraged to participate and collaborate with one another during academy-wide events, competitions and challenges through the house system which was relaunched for 2022-23.
Sharnbrook is a school where effort, hard work and success is expected, encouraged and celebrated, and creativity is nurtured. Our tutoring and pastoral systems provide a very high level of care and support for all students and allow them to develop a sense of belonging to the academy community.
We want our students to feel safe, happy and enjoy school and this aim is reflected in everything we do. Our ambition is that our students leave school having fulfilled their academic potential and, just as importantly, that they have developed into thoughtful, responsible citizens who are ready to make a positive difference to the world around them.
