Welcome To Westfield Academy

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Westfield Academy. We are an over-subscribed, high-performing, non-selective 11-18 Academy. We have been a consistently "Good" OFSTED school since 2012, with our most recent inspection being November 2024.

"At this Inclusive school, pupils get off to a great start. This is because staff help pupils to "believe, strive and achieve." Staff believe in pupils' abilities and potential. Pupils get  plenty of help, support and encouragement with their studies."

"Pupils are respectful to each other and to staff."  OFSTED Nov 2024

Our fabulous staff and students make this a wonderful school to attend. 

Tim Body, Headteacher

This event was held in honour of World Mental Health Day, which takes place tomorrow, Friday 10th October - a time to reflect on how we can look after our wellbeing. It's well known that arts and crafts can help manage the mind by: Reducing stress and anxiety Helping you focus on the present moment Boosting creativity and self-expression Providing a calming, mindful break from screens and study It was a lovely way for students to unwind, socialise with friends, and express their creativity. The event was so popular that we're already thinking about what to plan next! Thank you to everyone who joined us - and remember to take time for yourself this World Mental Health Day. #worldmentalhealth #english #book #arts #crafts

  • Year 11 in the Wild! Our amazing Year 11 students have been out in the field this week, taking their GCSE Biology studies beyond the classroom! They carried out an ecological field study, investigating biodiversity, population sampling, and the health of local ecosystems. From quadrats to transects, they collected real data, made observations, and applied key scientific skills all while enjoying the great outdoors. A brilliant hands-on experience and a fantastic step towards their final exams. Well done, Year 11! #GCSEBiology #Fieldwork #ScienceInAction #OutdoorLearning #EcologyStudy #FutureScientists #SchoolLife
