This approach means that teachers emphasise the importance of understanding the emotional and learning needs of their pupils and provide support in these areas, rather than focusing on the curriculum alone. The award was presented during this year’s Attachment Research Community Conference, a gathering of leading academics and practitioners in this area. “Winning this award is fantastic recognition for the team and what they have achieved over the last few years. This is an academy with a great team of people where children can come and feel safe and included. We are at the heart of our community,” said Headteacher Philip Lloyd. The academy, part of E-ACT multi-academy trust, received a rating of ‘Requires Improvement’ from Ofsted in 2016, and the proportion of disadvantaged pupils for whom the academy receives pupil premium is in the highest 20 per cent of state-funded schools nationally.
