Ken Stimpson Academy

Ready. Responsible. Respectful. Resilient.

  • The support you give to the girls [...] is excellent, we know you have many kids to support and the way it feels to us is as if they were the only ones you have to deal with , that’s quite an art

  • The kindness, compassion and empathy shown during difficult times is above and beyond anything we could have hoped for in secondary school and we are incredibly grateful for the continued support of everyone

  • I have been impressed with the strategies being implemented by the school recently to improve both educational and behavioural standards.

    Year 10 Parent

  • Strong leadership and a culture of supporting the children in achieving what is best for each individual child (not just wanting to get top marks) has made such a positive change

KSA is a school that sits in the heart of its community. The very layout of Werrington links together many different aspects of community life. This theme is something we are keen to develop and we welcome as many opportunities as possible to help our students grow to become valuable members of society.
