Thoughts and prayers are with pupils at staff and their families involved in the incident in Ammanford today. No child or adult should have to experience violence of this nature in any school environment. bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-w…

Incredibly proud, once again, of all of our pupils and staff. Well done TKA!

So saddened to see this report. I consider it a privilege to teach young people with special needs. These adults have completely abused their power and positions. What’s worse is that it continued to happen for 12 months after complaints were raised. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

This is a fabulous illustration of serve and return. One for all my lovely colleagues in the North West!

Already rehearsing Prom 3. And it’s sounding gorgeous! ⁦VOCES8⁩ ⁦The King's Singers⁩ ⁦BBC Proms⁩

Horrified by some of the scenes around the UK right now. Anyone who talks about ‘my country’ does stand up for me, that’s for sure. Thoughts and prayers with anyone who has been affected by this abhorrent and opportunistic violence.

Top Marks TKA!!! Our Y11 cohort have achieved a stellar set of results. A progress score of +1.2 means pupils achieved more than one grade extra progress than their peers. This progress will rank amongst the very top schools in the country - the best locally!! Never in doubt TKA!

Those who know me well will know I’m passionate about the notion of Remembrance being a crucial part of education. While it’s important to honour those who have fought many years ago and in all sorts of conflicts, education is key to fostering peace for our future generations.

We are really proud to announce we have been voted the Active Kingston ‘School of the Year’ at tonight’s Borough Sports Awards. Thank you to everyone in the TKA community who has contributed towards an incredible year. #WeareTKA The Kingston Academy The Kingston Academy

1/2 My dad unfortunately collapsed and passed away at the Wolves game last Monday night, he had to be carried up stairs from his seat in block 123 to be able to have CPR performed on him, his watch went missing when he was moved and we desperately want it back..

I’m currently looking at developing our framework for recording high quality conversations between form tutors and their tutees to provide 1:1 pastoral/academic (we refer to this as Tutor Conferencing). Does anyone have any interesting ideas/approaches they are willing to share?

Well done to our brilliant Y9&10 Sport Leaders who did a superb job in supporting the ⁦London Youth Games⁩ ‘Adapted Inspire Festival’ today. They did themselves and ⁦⁦The Kingston Academy⁩ very proud. #WeareTKA #community

"Let us learn to live with kindness, to love everyone, even when they do not love us." Pope Francis Whether you are Catholic or not, Pope Francis’ message has resonance with us all. Eternal rest grant unto him oh Lord and may perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace.
