Welcome to Lift Tamworth,

We are an inclusive, supportive school; we value and champion the diversity of our community and are ambitious for all students to have a happy, successful school career at the school.

We are a caring school and go above and beyond to make sure that we remove barriers that any student may face: all students are greeted by staff at the gate and as they enter threshold we offer equipment and uniform to any student that need them. The remarkable staff at Lift Tamworth are dedicated to ensuring that all students are safe, that they settle into the academy well and any concerns are addressed to not only support learning but also support student wellbeing and mental health.

The school has never been in such a strong position to provide the best education possible to our young people. We are fully staffed with committed, talented and enthusiastic professionals eager to deliver the very best education.

We look forward to welcoming all students into the school and will continue to develop all of our students to be the best that they can be.

If you have any further questions, please contact the school on reception@lifttamworth.org

Kind regards

Mr Jonathon Spears

Principal

Our Curriculum

Lift Tamworth is a successful, high-achieving secondary school where everyone is given the opportunity to do their best, whatever their background or ability.

Our inclusive curriculum provides opportunities for success for all our students, at all levels of ability. Extensive links with primary schools help to ease the transition process.

We are proud of our provision for children with special needs. On entry, students attainment levels are studied carefully and used to place students in teaching sets for all subjects except for PE. These sets are reviewed throughout the year and changes are made based on the students' progress, interim assessments and teacher judgements.

Student progress is monitored through informal and formal assessment in each curriculum area, and parents are kept informed through regular effort and progress checks.

The Curriculum is further strengthened by a variety of intervention/support strategies to ensure that the Curriculum is relevant and accessible for all students.
