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

  • Year 7 art students have been continuing work on their insect project, looking at creating collages. We love to see the detail and precision used to create the work

  • Everyone has an opinion on "young people today" - who knows - what we can say is that yet again over 70 of our Year 11s came into school on a Saturday (I know Saturday) morning - for English, Maths and Science revision from 9am to 12. We couldn't be more proud and impressed - also a massive thank you too all the teachers - without them it doesn't happen. Good luck next week.

  • Yr 9&10 Cricket v Croxley Danes Our U15 cricket team started the season with a game against our local rival and after the coin toss we chose to bowl first. Their opening batsman was very strong and scored well, retiring at 30. Our bowling and fielding wasn't as sharp as could be so we ended up conceding 86 runs off their 15 overs. We began our run chase very quickly with openers Hamza and Aadam scoring a  37 run partnership. A few wickets fell but Musa also supported the team scoring well with the bat to get us our first win with 5 overs to spare. Great start to the season lets keep it going! Mr Cook  MOTM - Hamza

  • Year 10 working hard on their water sampling experiment...

From Trainer Day all week to daily raffles, vouchers, and our £30 grand prize draw on Friday, there are plenty of reasons to be in school every day! Pupils must be in school to be in with a chance of winning, so let's make next week A-MAY-zing and finish the half term strongly together

  • The Year 11 the exams have started and we cannot wait to see you all shine!

  • Year 8 and 9 students enjoyed a visit to Bletchley Park to learn about how maths played a vital role in World War II codebreaking. Through hands-on activities, they explored patterns, logic, and problem-solving. Learning about pioneers like Alan Turing and Joan Clarke helped bring abstract concepts like algorithms and binary to life. Extract from Sheliyah in 8L I think my time at Bletchley park was fun and informative. I think that the activities around the site were fun e.g. the game consisting of questions asking if pictures on screen were AI or not What I learned was that without the people in Bletchley park, the world would look different today. What I found interesting was the fact that technology started there (more or less) Overall, I recommend Bletchley park to history, IT and maths lovers.

  • KS3 Art club made clay trinket dishes which have now been painted. We loved seeing their ideas come to life
