Welcome to Yewlands Academy

Kimberley WillmotPrincipal
At Yewlands Academy, every lesson, every moment, and every interaction matters. Our passionate and expert teaching staff are specialists in their subjects, committed to delivering high-quality, evidence-informed lessons that ensure knowledge is not just taught—but remembered and applied. Because true learning is about long-term understanding, not short-term recall.
Our vision is clear: we want every student to leave Yewlands equipped with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to thrive in a competitive world. We believe our students deserve an education every bit as rich and ambitious as that offered by the best schools in the country—and we are relentless in our pursuit of that standard. This means holding high expectations for every student, knowing that such expectations raise aspirations and drive achievement.
