From the Ormiston Shelfield Community Academy
Our method is not revolutionary in and of itself; rather, it is the way in which our thoughts are put together and firmly rooted in rigour and simplicity. It is really about being values driven, having a clear vision, focusing on outcomes for students, operating strict routines, doing the simple things well every day and building strong relationships at all levels. At Shelfield we have created a culture of success through the operation of routines and protocols and a focus on outcomes and by offering the very best teaching and support students learn, behave and are well mannered. Staff and students like working together because of the skillful and rigorous teaching that takes place. We provide students with experiences and opportunities that allows them to flourish academically and socially during and beyond their time at Shelfield. Stuart Turnbull - Principal. Our goal is to increase achievement, assist kids in overcoming learning obstacles, and—most importantly—open doors for our youth so they can have the opportunities and choices in life they deserve. The academy's developed pastoral procedures and committed Children's Services Team foster a caring and encouraging environment. To guarantee that students are secure, content, and successful within the academy, a variety of efficient support services are in place. Our values are important because they demonstrate our commitment to aspiration, positivity, responsibility and achievement in our daily actions and interactions. In interactions at Shelfield, we make an effort to use these words as frequently as feasible. Students at Shelfield are educated in a beautiful setting with top-notch facilities and resources thanks to a significant refurbishment. The best technology is available to students in order to improve learning and completely prepare them for the challenges of the twenty-first century.
