Welcome to Ipswich Academy

Our school exists to fulfil a simple expectation. That every child is entitled to a good education, with equal access to knowledge, skills, opportunities, aspirations, life chances and dignity.

Welcome to Ipswich Academy, a school community that is so clearly defined by its commitment to student success.

The school has a founding expectation: that every child deserves a great education, ensuring equal access to knowledge, opportunities, and dignity. I will be undeterred in my commitment to uphold high standards, ensuring our clear vision translates into exceptional academic and personal achievements for every young person in our care.

This unwavering commitment is underpinned by our core values, which echo that of our trust, Paradigm Trust, and they are Integrity, Community, and Excellence. This means relentlessly promoting what we permit: a safe, affirming, and consistent environment where all students feel valued and belong. We are an inclusive school that nurtures social and emotional development alongside academic rigor.

To secure the best outcomes, I invite all parents and carers to join us in this work. By fostering great communication and working together, we can ensure every child at Ipswich Academy is not only ready but empowered to meet ambitious aspirations for the future.

We are an inclusive school, which means that we feel that every child should be able to participate in every aspect of school life with a sense of belonging and a sense of being valued.

We do this by using a nurturing approach and through activities which promote social skills and emotional development, all within a safe, affirming and consistent environment.
