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
Welcome back, I hope that you have had a good break and feel completely refreshed and raring to go. I was pleased to hear that many of our year 11 pupils attended the revision sessions during the Easter break and I would like to thank the teachers for taking the time to plan and deliver intensive sessions for the team.

Good afternoon
Once again another busy week for Team Rushden, it started with year 9 immunisations on Monday followed by year 10 having immunisations on Wednesday. On Thursday there was a trip to London to see The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. I managed to see this production in Milton Keynes a while back, it really is excellent and it helps you understand and appreciate living with Aspergers syndrome. The author, Mark Haddon, says he wrote this novel about differences, about being an outsider, about seeing the world in a surprising and revealing way. It certainly does help you appreciate differences and celebrate the fact we all have something unique to offer. I am sure our pupils and staff thoroughly enjoyed the play and that it gave them lots to consider too.
What's On?
