Samuel Ward Academy is a large comprehensive secondary school located on the east side of Haverhill. We serve the communities of Haverhill and the surrounding villages.

Our ethos is to value every individual; to develop their honesty and integrity; to feed their creativity; to foster their resilience and independence. Above all, of course, we want our students to be successful learners. We are at the forefront of teacher research, publishing our teaching and learning journal twice a year. Our investment in our staff’s professional development and well-being ensures that they are highly skilled, committed and determined to achieve the best outcomes they can for their classes. Our pastoral and care systems are excellent, ensuring that we can respond quickly and flexible to each student’s needs.

Our expectations of students are high, but so are our expectations of ourselves. As a whole school, we are smart, polite and considerate. Through our day to day interactions, our structured personal development programme and the many opportunities for participation provided through the house system and our student democracy structures, we encourage our students to live by our school values.
