Thank you for taking an interest in Fakenham Academy. We are a local school with high ambitions. Drawing on the support of our partner schools within Sapientia Education Trust, our key drive is to continuously improve educational outcomes for all our students. We believe that education is the key to transforming life chances, and that by creating an outstanding learning environment where all students are happy and taught well we will enhance their prospects to become productive, successful citizens of the future. To achieve our goal of an outstanding learning environment we insist on getting the basics right day in and day out. These core standards include high expectations of everyone in our learning community; good discipline consistently applied; reliably good quality teaching; a commitment from parents to work in partnership with the academy and respectful, positive relationships between everyone in our learning community.
