Friday 11 October 2024 HWA Blog - 11.10.24 I am proud to showcase another productive and successful week of learning and adventure at Hollinwood Academy.

Friday 4 October 2024 HWA Blog - 4.10.24 Student voice is very, very important to Hollinwood Academy and over the last few weeks, we have been discussing the role of the student council. The purpose of the student council is to give students an opportunity to develop leadership by organising and carrying out school activities, events and projects.

Friday 27 September 2024 HWA Blog - 27.9.24 Lesson observations have continued this week and it has been amazing to see the children and young people engrossed in their learning. We have observed: English T4W primary, history primary, music secondary, English year 7, 9 and GCSE, Science primary, KS3 and GCSE, art year 8, maths primary and secondary, food technology KS3, PE year 7, outdoor education year 7 and primary reading. The key themes from the lesson observations this week are happy and engaged students, questions to help facilitate and extend learning, clear progression from lesson to lesson and the use of visuals and concrete materials to help support the understanding of new concepts. We have lots of lesson observations booked in for next week too and then it is teacher’s performance management meetings.
