Welcome to Downham Market Academy which is part of the Cambridgeshire Educational Trust. We aim to ensure that every student in our care realises their potential and we take that responsibility very seriously.
Our school ethos is the foundation for all of our work. The ethos is shared across the trust schools and it focuses on mutual respect and creating an environment where everyone can flourish.
We believe that it is important to concentrate on what happens in the classroom and our school planning ensures that students receive good lesson experiences. It is our ambition for Downham Market Academy children to make the same levels of progress of children in the other trust school.
We know that we are educating and caring for the whole child, so we have a strong vertical tutoring and house system in place which focuses on mentoring students so that they are happy and fulfilled.
Downham Market Academy is a place where everyone is supported to succeed and it is a delightful place to learn and to work. We extend an open invitation for you to visit us and see the school in its daily routine.
