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.

Good afternoon
Today year 11 had their exam prep talk to launch the full exam period, it was made clear what support was available during the exam period. Students can buy toast as a quick breakfast in the morning to prepare for the day ahead and get a free bottle of water all for 30p. We reminded pupils of the equipment requirements in preparation for their exams especially the use of their own calculator, one that they are familiar with the functions of and can use.

Good afternoon
I just want to say a massive thank you to the parents who continue to support the school and say such positive things about the academy in the community. The pupils and staff deserve to get a good press, the teachers go above and beyond to support our pupils, this was very evident throughout the Easter break and I am very proud of our pupils, how they conduct themselves here at Rushden Academy and on every trip they go on. We have absolutely nothing to hide and the door is always open for you to visit and see first-hand what is happening within our academy. We need to shake off myths and any negatives of the past because it is so unfair. Never have any doubts, I urge you to contact us and come in for a coffee and have a look around.
What's On?
