Enjoy guided tours, subject tasters, live demonstrations, a welcome talk and much more!
We welcome families and pupils who will be starting secondary school in September 2027.
Date: Thursday 24th September 2026
Time: 3.30pm – 6.30pm
I am very proud to be the Headteacher at the Da Vinci Academy and feel privileged to work with our students, staff, parents/carers, governors and a local community who all expect the very best from our academy. It is my commitment to ensure that alongside the staff body the highest standard of education is delivered to your child.
The Da Vinci Academy is part of L.E.A.D. Academy Trust and through a shared vision and values we are dedicated to continually improving the quality of education and are fully committed to ensuring all our students achieve their full academic potential, irrespective of starting point.
Our students are at the heart of everything we do. We firmly believe that every member of our community matters and is valued for the unique contribution they make to our academy.
The friendly and professional staff have high expectations of themselves and for our students, they work closely to share best practice and drive improvement. We continually strive for excellence in all aspects of academy life.
We do place great emphasis on our standards agenda: we have high expectations of our students in terms of their approach to their learning, their conduct and behaviour, their uniform, their attendance and punctuality and their involvement in the everyday life of the school. We expect our students to conduct themselves in a manner that benefits the school and creates a welcoming and respectful environment for all.
Thank you for taking the time to look around our website and I hope you enjoy discovering more about our great academy. I look forward to meeting and working with all parents and carers in your child’s educational journey.

Back to School: It`s OK to Feel Nervous
A new school year can bring excitement, but it can also bring worries. If you`re feeling anxious about going back to school, remember that you`re not alone. Try talking to someone you trust, getting back into a routine before term starts, and focusing on one day at a time.
Did you know? Good attendance helps you stay connected with friends, build confidence, keep up with learning, and access support when you need it. Every day in school counts.
Need support? Speak to your tutor, Head of Year, school counsellor, or pastoral team. Access free support online through: Kooth: https://www.kooth.com/ YoungMinds: https://www.youngminds.org.uk/ • Childline: https://www.childline.org.uk/
Remember: asking for help is a strength, not a weakness.

A school day with fewer digital distractions creates more opportunities for students to build friendships, take part in conversations, stay engaged in lessons and enjoy everything school has to offer.
Introducing Yondr phone pouches will help create even more opportunities for students to:
💬 Connect with friends
🎯 Stay focused in lessons
😊 Enjoy a calmer school day
🌟 Get the very best from every learning opportunity
We`re looking forward to introducing this positive change in September and thank you for your continued support.
