🏫✨ Shrewsbury Academy – A School Transformed, A Future Inspired ✨🏫
Over the past 12 months, Shrewsbury Academy has undergone an incredible transformation and we’re just getting started. Our brand-new build now features state-of-the-art Science, Technology, and Maths rooms, along with a stunning new library designed for quiet study, reflection, and focused learning. It’s a space where curiosity thrives and confidence grows.
But choosing a secondary school isn’t just about exam results, it’s about the daily experiences that shape young people into confident, curious, and capable learners.
Here’s a glimpse into a typical week for our Year 7 students:
• A balanced timetable of English, maths, and science, plus creative subjects like art, drama, and music
• Dedicated PE and sport sessions to build fitness, teamwork, and fun
• Regular lessons in languages, history, geography, and technology
• Daily tutor time focused on wellbeing and personal development
• All delivered within The Shore - our exclusive Year 7 space designed to support a smooth and confident transition to secondary school
And the learning doesn’t stop at 3:15pm! Our enrichment programme offers lots of clubs and activities.
Together, our curriculum and enrichment opportunities give every child the chance to discover their talents and develop lifelong skills.
📞 Want to see the transformation for yourself? Call reception on 01743 276700 to book a personal tour - we’d love to show you around.

💡🔬 Year 9 Light Up Learning with LDRs! 🔬💡
As the nights draw in, our curious Year 9 students have been asking - how do streetlights know when to turn on? Well… now they know!
In their latest science lesson, they investigated how resistance in a circuit increases when LDRs (light dependent resistors) are exposed to lower light intensity - a key principle behind automatic lighting systems. 🌙✨
It was fantastic to see students leading their own learning, applying scientific knowledge to everyday life, and making real-world connections. This is what STEAM at Shrewsbury Academy is all about - curiosity, discovery, and understanding the world around us.
