The School
Alcester Academy is a highly successful 11-16 school with 650 students currently on roll. Alcester is located between Studley and Stratford-Upon-Avon. The school has an excellent reputation based on examination results, a progressive approach to educational development and a strong sense of community. At our last published inspection in 2022, Ofsted judged us as Good. The schools' overall Progress 8 score for 2024 was +0.66 (SISRA), which we believe once again places us as one of the top performing non selective schools in Warwickshire, and in the top 5% nationally.
Further details about the school can be found on our website (www.alcesteracademy.org.uk), including our current curriculum information. Our X feed (@AlcesterAcademy) is another excellent source for a feel of the school.
