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.

Year 7 had a magical day at the Harry Potter Studio Tour !

On Monday the art department had a visit from Sharon from Uni of Herts and street artist Jelly J. Together we are working on a collaborative art project discussing the topic of equality and women's rights. Year 12 Art and History students took part in an art workshop using magazines dating from 1950's-2000's to create paste up artworks which will become part of a street artwork in Watford later this year. It was a great opportunity for students to develop skills, communication and collaboration.

It's going to be a fabulous - but very hot week. To make the best of it - please ensure we all have - water bottles and where possible, hats for shade outside. Blazers and ties aren't needed so we can try to keep as cool as possible.

Artist spotlight - Bartek K in Year 10 has created a skilful and highly detailed artist transcription inspired by the work of David Hockney, one of Britain's most influential contemporary artists. This spotlight is particularly poignant following the recent news of Hockney's death at the age of 88. Celebrated for his innovation across painting, photography and digital media, Hockney leaves behind an extraordinary artistic legacy that has shaped generations of artists.
