Our Staff

Our dedicated teachers spend time planning interesting lessons so that their love of the subject is passed on to students. Home Learning is set to help students develop the skills to work independently and to practise and extend skills learnt in school. However, learning at The Adeyfield Academy would be impossible without the contribution of our dedicated team of Education Support Staff.

Thank you for heading up such a fantastic learning environment, and for employing so many supportive, nurturing staff.
