Lampton Academy

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 8 May 2024

Lampton Academy sets high expectations for pupils' behaviour and achievement. Leaders are determined that pupils will excel. These expectations are reflected in the 2023 GCSE examination results which were very strong. Similarly, in the sixth form, students reach high levels of achievement. Pupils are ambitious and access a wide range of high quality options for their next stage of education. The school has worked with parents, carers and pupils to establish and agree the behaviour policy. All staff insist on adherence to the routines that have been set out, and pupils uphold high standards of conduct and behaviour. In lessons, pupils keenly focus on the learning activities they are provided with. Pupils feel safe at school, because they are confident of who to go to if they have a concern, such as bullying. They know that teachers will take swift action if needed to resolve any issues. As a result, pupils are happy here and treat each other with kindness and respect. The school has established its character traits of 'grit, responsibility, kindness and being an intellectual' that underpin the way staff praise pupils. For example, in the sixth form students are recognised for volunteering their time to help younger pupils to practise their reading.
