It was great to spend time at Wenlock CE Academy this week. What a fantastic and impressive school which has undergone a massive school improvement journey, lead diligently by Olivia Burke and her wonderful team. Whilst they were busy talking to some important visitors, we ensured that the Year 6 movie night pupils had popcorn. It was great team work. Caldecote CE Academy recently had their SIAMS inspection and I can proudly share that they achieved a J1 and some highlights are here… -        They readily discover the uniqueness of individual pupils and how they can reach their potential. -        Pastoral care is extremely effective -        The school and Diocese of St Albans Multi-Academy Trust (DSAMAT) work closely together   There has been much hard work from Sarah Young and her team to achieve this great outcome. I thank them for their hard work. Today the DfE Regional Director for the East of England, Jonathan Duff visited Manshead to see the transformation at the school over such a short period of time. It is such exciting times for the school. It was great to talk, tour and think about our Trust. Jonathan asked throughout how the DfE can support and he was really listening to what we spoke about. Well done Manshead staff for the work that you do. @TW_CE_Academy @diostalbans @stalbansdioedu @COOInclusiveMAT @mrawolfe @Caldecote_CE @NorthillHead @Ravensdenhead @ravensdenps @StJamesHead @UrsulaTaylorSch @mansheadacademy @KensworthCE @StudhamAcademy @WenlockAcademy @TotternhoeCE @Stlceacademy @teachleadaali @trustsafeguard @DavidWoolf16137 @ali_brabs @StLCEacademy
