Welcome to Lawn Manor Academy. I am incredibly proud to lead a school that places young people at the heart of everything we do. Lawn Manor Academy is a school with ambition, aspiration and a deep commitment to ensuring every pupil is supported to achieve their very best.
Since opening in 2017 as part of the Ascend Learning Trust, Lawn Manor Academy has built a strong reputation for providing a supportive, inclusive, and ambitious learning environment. With nearly 1000 pupils, we continue to grow and develop as a school of choice for families across Swindon, whilst remaining focused on the individual needs, talents and potential of every child.
Everything we do is driven by a shared commitment to Inspiring and Creating Futures for All. We believe that every young person has the potential to succeed, and it is our responsibility to provide the highest quality education, support and experiences to help them realise that potential. Through excellent teaching, a broad and engaging curriculum, and a rich programme of wider opportunities, we equip pupils with the knowledge, skills and confidence they need for future success.
At the heart of our school is The Lawn Manor Way, which shapes our culture and expectations every day. We encourage all members of our community to be:
Ready to Learn
Be Prepared
Be Polite
Be Ambitious
These values help create a calm, purposeful and respectful environment where pupils can thrive academically, socially and personally. We have high expectations because we know that young people achieve their best when they are challenged, supported and inspired to aim high. They help develop confident learners who are prepared not only for examinations, but for life beyond school as responsible citizens and lifelong learners.
As part of the Ascend Learning Trust, we benefit from strong partnerships with schools across the Trust, united by the shared vision to Believe, Belong and Become. This collaboration enhances opportunities for both pupils and staff and helps ensure that we continually improve and innovate.
The years ahead are particularly exciting for Lawn Manor Academy. With plans for a brand-new school building progressing well, we are entering an important new chapter in our school’s journey. It is a privilege to lead Lawn Manor Academy at such an exciting time.
I hope our website and prospectus provide you with a sense of what makes our school special. However, nothing compares to visiting in person and experiencing our community for yourself.
We look forward to welcoming you to Lawn Manor Academy.
