Basic Skills Quality Mark

Timberley Academy is very proud to have been awarded the Basic Skills Quality Mark. It is an award that celebrates and supports continuous improvement in literacy and numeracy.

It is awarded to a setting or school to recognise their provision, practice and performance in literacy and numeracy. 

A school or setting must demonstrate a whole school approach to improving standards in literacy and numeracy, with evidence of the impact of its approaches.

Basic Skills Quality Mark – Extended Provision

We have also been awarded the Basic Skills Quality Mark for Extended Provision.

The provision of extended activities and services forms part of a wider agenda and highlights was we do as a school to contribute to both national and local strategies for integrated children’s services, community regeneration and community cohesion. At the heart of these is the raising achievement agenda.

We are very proud of everything we do for our children including breakfast and tea club, Stay and Play, the fantastic work our Pastoral Care Manager does with children and their families. We have a range of after school clubs which include: football, dance, cricket, gardening, cooking, basketball, homework, ICT, craft and art and many more!
