WELCOME

To outstanding status and beyond…

Parkwood Academy is a vibrant and exciting place to be. As newly appointed Principal I aim to build on the strong foundations of recent years by injecting creativity, innovation and passion, as well as focusing on the strong traditional values of education.

With the completion of our £20m new build, due in April 2012, and with ever improving examination success the future of the Academy is bright. The projected 20% increase in student numbers ensures that our future growth will continue, leading to new and exciting career developments.

At Parkwood we believe in four core principles:

Excellence for All
Maximising Potential
Community Development
Belief in Success

If you share our vision...

To serve the students by providing a high class educational provision
That intelligence and ability is not fixed
For an imaginative and inclusive curriculum
To enrich and empower the community to better support its young people and our students

...then Parkwood is for you.

As Principal I have a deep rooted belief that we have the power to transform lives and circumstances to make perceived impossibilities a reality.

I look forward to hearing from you.

With best regards,

Mike Westerdale
Principal

Parkwood Academy – ‘More than you can expect’
