A warm welcome to Smith’s Wood Academy
Respectful Ambitious Resilient
Welcome to the Smith’s Wood Academy website. Our Academy is part of Fairfax Multi-Academy Trust.
Smith’s Wood is a secondary Academy with just over 780 students in years 7 to 11 and with access to Fairfax Academy Sixth Form for years 12 & 13.
The Academy has the benefit of being a PFI build with a wide range of modern, state of the art facilities at its disposal.
Since I joined the Academy in February 2023, we have been on a clear trajectory to making small daily steps that result in big changes and everything we do is underpinned by our Academy values; ambitious, respectful, resilient.
