Montgomery Academy Improvement Plan (MIP) 2025/27 Montgomery Academy is a GOOD school. Quality of Education, behaviour & attitudes, personal development and leadership were rated GOOD in our most recent OFSTED inspection in May 2024. To improve further the school should: ● Ensure that the gaps in pupils’ knowledge are identified and addressed swiftly so that pupils are well prepared for the next stage of their learning or employment ● Ensure that teachers are well equipped to deepen pupils’ knowledge of the subjects that they study ● Review the current extra-curricular offer to encourage wider participation and promote pupils’ wider development In this plan, we will look to further… ● embed the excellent work of last two years in terms of the quality of education ● enhance the positive culture of the academy. The culture at Montgomery is already securely positive amongst both staff and students. This was evident in the most recent OFSTED inspection and from other external evaluations. However, we recognise further improvement can be achieved as we look to achieve excellence in all areas of our work. Areas of particular focus in enhancing the culture and the feeling of belonging at Montgomery further will be: ● Independent learning skills ● Behaviour and attitudes to learning (including Attendance) and to each other ● Awareness of global citizenship and understanding of related personal responsibilities We believe that a culture consists of people working together towards a shared goal and that is:
“Inspiring Excellence Together”
