From the Ditton Park Academy
Our goal for Ditton Park Academy is for it to be a cutting-edge, exceptional school that motivates learning. It produces self-assured youth who flourish in their personal, social, and personal and social development, doing more than they thought possible. Our entire student body is a "active citizen." The confidence to engage in decision-making, offering assistance and/or creative input in the three areas of family well-being, public service, and economic sufficiency will be instilled in all pupils. By doing this, we cultivate students who are responsible and self-assured and who give back to the Slough community. The culture and curriculum of the academy are based on the belief that lifelong learning is essential to not just success in adult life but will also be required in order to actively engage in the world of work in the future. The school offers excellent teaching and learning possibilities that guarantee the students' success and achievement, allowing them to proceed with confidence into the workforce, additional training, or higher education. We offer a welcoming learning atmosphere where every learner is able to succeed. The interests and abilities of each student are taken into account while designing learning routes. The curriculum is differentiated in a way that maximises each student's attainment and achievement when it is planned using a personalised approach. We acknowledge the requirement for all students to possess the abilities to utilise and adjust to rapidly evolving global technologies that will be pertinent to their future work. In order to emphasise the significance we place on helping our students and faculty understand and engage in effective thinking and learning that will support both their success in learning and teaching and their capacity to adapt to shifting educational or workplace requirements, we aim to become a "International Thinking School."

Kids are OUT OF CONTROL! Teachers will mostly ignore bad behaviour of consistently bad students. Some students are constantly poorly behaved towards both staff and peers. They give out detentions for uniform for minor things like you walked up the stairs with no blazer ( even when it’s burning hot in the summer) they disregard the majority of students who behave well and act accordingly in class and punish everyone for the minority of troubled...
