Welcome to
Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy
preparing them for learning and life beyond
Welcome to Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy, where we are committed to doing whatever it takes to make sure all our students receive an outstanding education and achieve exceptional things. We are an extremely ambitious school community and believe there are no excuses for not achieving your absolute potential. We know that you want the very best for your child, a school where they will achieve academic excellence, grow in confidence and develop a skill set that will allow them to excel in the challenging and complex world.
Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy is a dynamic and successful 11-18 Academy serving the local community. We have students of all abilities and from a wide variety of backgrounds, all of whom contribute to the richness of our school population.
At Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy our aim is to get the best out of every student; excellence in teaching and learning is therefore at the heart of our work. My vision is based on three core values: ‘Respect, Resilience, Responsibility’. In working towards instilling these values in our students, we strive to provide a safe, healthy and stimulating environment for all.
