I am delighted to welcome you to Leigh Academy Molehill.

The sense of pride that we each feel here at Molehill is strengthened by our commitment to placing our pupils at the centre of their learning. Teachers have embedded a culture of high expectations; we will all do whatever it takes to create better life opportunities for our children, who deserve the very best. We care about our pupils and the communities we serve, and driven by the strong moral purpose, we work together to achieve excellence for all, creating confident, resilient children.

Our pledge to parents is that we will provide every pupil with the knowledge, skills, self-belief and motivation to be successful in their learning and lives. At Leigh Academy Molehill, we promote the International Baccalaureate Learner Profile Attributes to support the development of life-long learners. Our pupils are inquirers, our curriculum develops their natural curiosity and allows them to apply their thinking skills creatively. We strive to ensure that, through our excellent teaching, pupils become highly articulate communicators who act with integrity and honesty. Our pupils demonstrate on a daily basis that they are caring individuals, and they, like us, want to make a positive difference to the lives of others.

Our recent OFSTED inspection from 2024 has confirmed that we have A ‘highly ambitious curriculum’ and ‘Dedicated and skilful staff remove barriers to ensure that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) learn well’. We were graded OUTSTANDING for the quality of education, Outstanding Behaviour and attitudes, Personal development, Leadership and management and Early years provision.
