Our standards are exceptionally high, classrooms are disruption free, pupils are hardworking, polite, and genuinely want to make a difference for themselves and those around them. Our latest Progress 8 score is likely to be north of 0.62 which would put us in the top 10% of schools nationally. We are committed to raising this still further in coming years. The new Geography Teacher will be integral to this success.
Our lasted Ofsted (July 2023) described the school as ‘calm and orderly’ and visitors often remark on how Broadwater looks and feels like a ‘happy’ school. Our school principles of ‘Work Hard; Be Kind; Make a Difference’ are central to all that we do.
Our school is committed to ensuring everyone is treated with respect, challenged to have high expectations and ambitious to reach their potential regardless of their starting point. This applies to staff and students alike.
Our Personal Development programme was judged as ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted in 2019 and we are particularly proud of our extracurricular provision which can be found on our website. Every teacher is involved in ensuring this provision is ’beyond outstanding’.
Broadwater converted to an Academy and joined the Greenshaw Learning Trust in September 2020. This has been a really exciting period and has given both students and staff a wealth of opportunities.
The Greenshaw Learning Trust is a ‘family’ of like-minded schools that collaborate to provide mutual support, share their good practice, and learn from each other, whilst retaining and developing their own distinctive character. The Greenshaw Learning Trust website www.greenshawlearningtrust.co.uk provides a clear picture of our aspirations and our vision for schools within the Trust; however, please do not hesitate to contact us to seek further information.
