What a last day. Year 9 Attendance Breakfast Disco and lots of Secret Squirrel rewards! We have had a brilliant half-term. Thank you to our families for your support. Thank you as well to our Campus Manager Mr Taylor for being the Secret Squirrel! #MrTaylorisSecretSquirrel

A fantastic Friday in the Academy today. We saw focused learning across all subjects, as well our Year 10 Attendance Rewards Breakfast and several other exciting opportunities in action. Don't miss out! See you on Monday! #AttendtoAchieve #Belonging

@MrsWintrip Thanks Lauren. The Vendredi debriefs helped!

@SnowdenPe Well done, Matt! 👏🏻🌟

😀 Great news for the start of the summer break. Really enjoyed the breadth of leadership education and the support & challenge offered by my programme buddy. Congratulations to all that have finished the NPQSL 23-25 🥳

@MissLPritchard Thanks Louisa. Benefitted hugely from your insight and expertise when running our sessions.

@SnowdenPe Congratulations, Matt - very well deserved!

Goodbye, little bird. See you soon! 🤞 All done after 18 months of study, musings and monologues with/at my course buddy.

A huge day in the Academy tomorrow as we deliver our biggest ever rewards assembly for over 300 pupils with 100% attendance and 100% positive points for three weeks in a row. There are still three more weeks left to collect our first 100% Club badge! #Attendance #Achievement

Wonderful students benefitting from a diverse and exciting programme beyond the school day.

60 students at drama club! 25 at trampolining and 30 at boys football! Amazing to see our @DukeriesAcademy students commitment to developing their hobbies, skills and interests outside the school day. #enrichment

Really proud of a brilliant year group, and their inspirational staff @DukeriesAcademy

The sport and entertainment was world class. The lessons even better.

There’s just nothing like the Olympic Games

Unbelievable from Marchand 🇫🇷 Nothing quite like the Olympics, especially Olympic swimming. An extraordinary watch after a special day for Team GB.

bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics… GOAT How can she make it look so easy?

bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics… In addition to superhuman feats of physical and psychological performance, the Olympic Games are unrivalled because of moments like this…

Very grateful to this dream team that coolly managed to get 253 very excited students to and from Alton Towers safely. Remarkable group of people that helped us celebrate the attendance and success of some very appreciative students. Same time next year?

Students were inspired by Toms Talks earlier this week, raising the profile around mental health and male suicide. If you missed the story on BBC news, the article and link to catch up is below (around 4:40 onwards). bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod… bbc.com/news/articles/…

What a wonderful evening celebrating 50 of our most talented, committed and hard working drama, music and PE students. So proud of our @DukeriesAcademy students. Huge thanks to @ChrisMiggells ex TDA student, for an inspiring speech and beautiful performance.

This year we launched The Year 7 Bridge. Year 7 have spent this year in their own part of the school, learning our culture and living our values. Tonight, they walked The Bridge one final time together and graduated into the main Academy. #Greatness #Year7Graduation2024
