The Education We Offer

The education we offer at Quarrydale is built around a highly qualified team of staff committed to delivering a quality education to all our students. Your child will enter a calm, safe and secure environment where high quality learning can effectively take place. We work in partnership with parents to ensure that every child receives the best possible education and takes pride in being part of our successful and caring community.
Mr T Paling

Develop a love of learning

At Quarrydale we are committed to the pursuit of excellence, both in terms of the achievement of students and the quality of educational provision we deliver on a daily basis. We want to encourage all learners to develop a love of learning and enable everyone to reach the highest standards of which they are capable. This includes academic success as well as excellence in sport, arts and culture.  Students have to believe in themselves and strive for success. This includes accepting the need for the highest standards of uniform, behaviour, being ready to learn and having the correct equipment every day. Our expectations are high and this because we want our students to always achieve their best.

Transition from Year 6 to Year 7

What about transition?
Transition welcome

Hello

We want to take this opportunity to introduce ourselves and welcome you to Quarrydale Academy. As the ‘Transition Team’ we work with your primary teachers, gathering information to make your transition as easy and smooth for you as possible, supporting you throughout year 7.

Transition is very important to us and we realise that for many of you it will be a worrying time, but with the current situation in the country, our normal arrangements will understandably change. We will do our best to accommodate our new pupils to the best of our ability and be reassured that we will be here to support not only students but their parents and carers too.

We will be in touch as soon as possible with more help and advice but in the meantime please check our website regularly for general information and updates about the school.

Thank you for choosing us, we will strive to give all our students the best education possible.

We look forward to seeing you all soon.
