At Thomas Middlecott, we operate a warm/strict philosophy. We are apologetically strict when it comes to expectations; we are very clear about how things are done here- there are no grey areas at TMA . We value our relationships between staff and students, ensuring that barriers to learning are removed and that students feel safe and a sense of belonging. Thomas Middlecott is a family- we want students to feel loved by an academy that knows that they can achieve great things and will accept nothing less than their best efforts to get there.
Our academy is named after Sir Thomas Middlecott, who founded the first Free Grammar School in Kirton in 1624, and there has been a school serving our local community ever since.
