Ben Jeffery

Interim Head of Lingwood Primary Academy

Welcome

At Lingwood Primary Academy, we strive to ensure our children have the highest quality education as well as gaining a breath of experiences through our curriculum.


The children at Lingwood Primary are inspired and enthusiastic learners, who are encouraged to step out of their comfort zones and challenge themselves every day.

About us

Learning

Our curriculum is designed to ensure that pupils leave Lingwood Primary not only prepared for the next stage of their school career but prepared for life.



We are committed to providing a curriculum which is broad, balanced, sequential, and progressive. 

Our education

Parents

At Lingwood Primary Academy, we believe that in order to provide a successful education for every individual child we must work in partnership with parents.


We have high expectations of ourselves, our children and our parents and carers. Together, we develop all areas of academy life, with clear expectations from all sides.

Lingwood Primary Academy Newsletter 3rd October

By lorraine.long • October 3, 2025
Dear Families, It has been lovely to meet so many of you this week on the gate - I am thrilled to be the Interim Headteacher of such a wonderful school! Thank you all for making me feel so welcome. We have had a busy, productive week across the school - I have seen some fabulous focus and effort by children in classes and particularly enjoyed our Harvest Festival Assembly which was a chance for the whole school to connect. Autumn is in the air, and the nights are starting to draw in. Please do encourage your older children who have walking home permissions to walk home carefully as the evenings get darker, particularly when crossing roads. Please look out for information on how to sign up to your parents evening appointment next week. Have a wonderful weekend. Best wishes Mrs J Sendall Interim Headteacher

Lingwood Primary Academy Newsletter 26th September

By ashley.coley • September 26, 2025
Dear parents and carers, This is my final newsletter that I will be writing to you as the headteacher at Lingwood. I wanted to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you for the amazing support and experience I have had. In December, I had never even heard of Lingwood and now it is a place that I will never forget. I promise to return to take on the park run when I am fully fit. On Wednesday, I spent the day with Jane Sendall who will be the new interim headteacher. This was an invaluable day and means there will be a smooth handover next week. Mrs Sendall was so impressed with how the children were both in and out of lessons and was blown away by their manners. It is clear that children at Lingwood are kind, ambitious and determined. It has been another solid week for attendance. Next Thursday (2 nd October) is census day. You should have received an email from Mrs Tubby about anyone entitled to a free school meal receiving one on this day. If you haven’t received this email or have any questions, please speak to Mrs Tubby. We have seen an increasing amount of toys and fidget toys being brought into school. Please do not send your child in with any type of toys unless it has been agreed by the Mrs Smith (SENCO) and class teacher. There are few children who the school supply fidget toys to because the senco has decided it will help them concentrate. Increasingly children are bringing them in for no reason and not using them for the correct reasons. Thank you once again for making me feel so welcome at Lingwood. I have a few days in the next couple of months where I will be popping back so, please do say hello. Have a lovely weekend Mr Jeffery

Lingwood Primary Academy Newsletter 19th September

By ashley.coley • September 19, 2025
Dear parents and carers, I am pleased to inform that my surgery went well and that I will be back in school from next Tuesday. On Wednesday, Mrs Sendall will be visiting the school which she is very much looking forward to. Miss Coley informs me that Lingwood have had another fantastic, yet busy week. KS1 and KS2 premier sports, Cookery and Mrs Sellen’s sign language club were all fully attended and enjoyed by all attendees. School and Eco Council met this week with Ms Mills to discuss Autumn Term ideas. Next week, Mrs Brighton will launch her running club which we are really excited about. This week, we also had our Rotary volunteers to listen to our children read and our first KS1 reading morning. Our ‘Meet the Teacher’ drop-in sessions and the ‘Food Festival’ were also very well attended thank you to those who stopped by. I hear the watermelon and pizza were firm favourites. We have been pleased with our attendance at the start of term. Our school attendance is currently at 97.2%, well done to Badgers who just swiped the attendance award this week! Next week, we have an opportunity for our parents who have children with SEND needs to attend their learning support plan meetings. Please speak to your child’s class teacher if you have not booked a time slot. Parents evening timings Tuesday 14 th 3.30 - 6.30pm, Wednesday 15 th 3.30 - 5.30 Thursday 16 th 3.30 - 5.30pm. Further information to sign up will be coming soon. Thank you to those who attended the FOLPA meeting and any school events which have happened this week. Have a lovely weekend. I look forward to being back next week. Mr Jeffery
