We have created a calm and purposeful learning environment in which our students can flourish and succeed. The skills and dedication of our staff, state-of-the-art facilities and the support of Leigh Academies Trust mean that students consistently progress at levels significantly above national averages in a wide range of academic and vocational courses. Students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of trips and extracurricular activities. Our pastoral programmes, underpinned by traditional values, help our students to develop into well-balanced young adults. We are a self-evaluating community with high aspirations constantly seeking to advance and improve. Strong and determined leadership and teamwork have helped us to maintain and build upon our high standards. We are friendly, caring and ambitious, placing the academic progress and welfare of our students at the heart of everything we do. Before joining Leigh Academies Trust in 2010, Wilmington Academy was formerly known as Wilmington Enterprise College and previously Wilmington Hall School and Wilmington High School.
