Safeguarding

Note from the Principal:

Welcome to Sandymoor Ormiston Academy I am proud to be Principal; working alongside a very talented and committed body of staff and an ever-supportive community.

All of our efforts directly support the positive experience of our students, and our goal is to provide a safe and stimulating environment in which all our students can flourish; achieving academic excellence, becoming emotionally and physically stronger, and growing their talents.

We have brought significant improvements; shifting our progress 8 from -0.72 to -0.3 to +0.3 within 3 years; increasing our 4+ and 5+ passes in English and Maths results considerably; making us the most improved school in Halton.

We are relentless on our journey to becoming one of the best schools in the country for all pupils.

Being a school blessed with smaller year groups we really do know our students inside-out and always put them at the heart of every decision we make to ensure that they are happy, confident and that the opportunities that are provided for them are relevant to their needs both now and in the future.

Become the very best version of yourself

Sally Jones
Principal
