About The Featherstone Academy
- The Featherstone Academy
- Pontefract Road, Featherstone, Pontefract
- West Yorkshire

- United Kingdom
At The Featherstone Academy we teach the core personal values of respect, aspiration, and pride.
The Featherstone Academy is an ambitious and aspirational secondary school, which is part of Resilience Multi Academy Trust (RMAT).
We continue to build upon our February 2017 Ofsted grading of being 'Outstanding' for personal development, behaviour and welfare, and overall 'Good', to increase the life chances and opportunities of the students within our community. In 2022, we were judged by Ofsted in a short inspection to have continued to be a 'Good' school.
The Featherstone Academy is an inclusive secondary school, and we also have a Wakefield Education Authority Specialist Provision on site for a number of autistic children who join some of our curriculum with peers of their own age.
With a strong focus on resilience, growth mindset and positive discipline, the RMAT ethos has helped to transform The Featherstone Academy, as well as the lives of students and teachers. These values have created a learning environment in which all students can succeed. This environment is supported by an imaginative and differentiated curriculum in all year groups.
The staff of The Featherstone Academy are committed to ensuring the students who attend the academy are successful and able to achieve their goals, through hard work, recognition of their individual success and a relentless drive to ensure student achievement.
The curriculum instils resilience in our students the moment they enter the school and is continuous through their time with us. Encompassed within this innovative curriculum is our belief in a growth mindset. The belief that intelligence is far from fixed or inherited but an area we can all improve if we work hard and learn from our mistakes.
The Featherstone Academy thrives on the positive relationships with parents and carers that support us and their child’s learning. We have unashamedly high expectations of our staff and students and look to promote a school friendly home to nurture and challenge our students.
We are ambitious, aspirational and proud of where we are from. We want to be a beacon of learning, aspiration and success for our local community.
