Message from the Principal...
Thank you for visiting!
I am delighted to welcome you to our rapidly improving school, Rushden Academy. We are part of a highly successful trust called Tove Learning Trust (TLT) and have excellent collaborative networks across the trust. Staff really enjoy working at Rushden Academy and our high staff retention figures demonstrate this fully.
Team Rushden are on the cusp of something great, our results are rapidly improving and our intake numbers are increasing. Visitors are impressed when they visit our school commenting on the strong Team Rushden values permeating across all aspects of school life. We have built a culture where together, students and staff are united in transforming our school.
We are proud of our achievements to date and regularly communicate this widely. There is a strong drive to excel in lessons and to behave respectfully towards each other and our community. We are proud of the curriculum that we have on offer, not only does it deliver the content pupils need to excel in today’s society but it also develops their imaginations.
Our sixth form provision, The East Northamptonshire College (TENC), is shared with two local secondary schools, sharing our expertise not only at KS5 but also at KS4 with cross moderation and quality assurance systems. We also have an outstanding nursery onsite, which is open term-time only and many of our staff use this excellent provision for their children.

It is really important that our pupils get to see what life is like beyond Rushden Academy so this week we took our further maths students to Cambridge University for a maths challenge, our history students to Westminster for a history in action lecture on Russia and the media students went to the British Film Institute in London. All trips were successful and staff and students alike benefitted from their experiences.

Dear All
Year 11 drama pupils made a strong start to their ‘real’ exams this week. It was good to see the pupils determined to succeed in their drama exam and we wish them every success in their forthcoming mocks starting on Monday. It is essential that your son/daughter makes the most of this mock process and puts every effort into gaining the best grades. The only way to succeed is to work hard and revise the work. Support material can be found on Go4 Schools and exam board websites.
