Principal's Welcome

Welcome to Kirton Academy.

Kirton Academy is on an exciting and transformative journey, where community engagement, cultural enrichment, and continually improving expectations and outcomes for our students are at the heart of everything we do. Our ambition is clear: to provide an environment where every young person can thrive and achieve their very best.

Kirton Academy is a happy, safe and inclusive school where students learn in a culture built on mutual respect. While academic attainment is important, we believe education is about much more than examination results. We want our students to be proud of who they are, to develop a passion for educational excellence, and to become active and positive members of their community.

Every child is supported and encouraged to strive for success. Our dedicated staff work closely with students to ensure they are challenged, inspired and equipped with the knowledge, skills and confidence they need for the future.

As part of the Lincolnshire Gateway Academies Trust, we work closely with our partner schools to share expertise and develop the strongest possible curriculum experiences for all students.

Our expectations are high, and we are committed to supporting every student to meet them.

As Principal, I warmly welcome visits and tours of the academy and look forward to showing you all that makes Kirton Academy such a special place to learn and grow.

Mrs Emma Ricketts
Principal
