It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Landau Forte Academy Amington. At Amington, we are passionate about transforming lives and empowering all of our students to reach their full potential.
We serve a community with high aspirations, and I believe that together—students, staff, parents, carers, and the wider community—we are all committed to making Amington an Academy we can be truly proud of, both for its academic excellence and its outstanding pastoral care.
Our ambition is evident in our students' excellent outcomes and the positive recognition we received in our May 2022 Ofsted report , which rated the Academy as Good in all areas. Accessibility to the community is a vital part of our approach.
Alongside parents evenings and Edulink, we have scheduled drop-in sessions throughout the year, offering an opportunity for any member of our community to meet with us and discuss learning at Amington. As an outward-looking Academy, we are always eager to learn from and collaborate with a wide range of external partners.
