Wingfield Academy is thrilled to announce its exceptional achievement of winning two Pearson National Teaching ‘Silver’ Awards in the categories of ‘Making a Difference (Secondary School of the Year)’ and ‘Headteacher of the Year in a Secondary School’. These prestigious awards were announced during the National Thank a Teacher Day, making the occasion even more special for the entire school community.
Students at Wingfield Academy participated in the celebrations by writing thank you cards to staff members across the school, expressing their gratitude and appreciation for the dedication and hard work of their teachers and support staff.

It’s especially rewarding to know that the team is being recognized for the difference they make to children and their families in the local community. Wingfield Academy truly is a very special place.”
