Welcome to Nightingale Academy

We are a vibrant, inclusive learning community in Edmonton, North London.  The Nightingale vision is driven by our focus on the importance of trust, respect, support and challenge for each other in order to maximise the life chances of our students and raise the quality of outcomes for all members of the school community.

Nightingale Academy hosted the Able, Gifted and Talented student and parents evening on Wednesday the 8th of May 2013
The Aims of the evening were:
1) To give parents (and students) an understanding of what it is to be on the A,G&T register
2) To understand more about the provision for A,G&T at Nightingale Academy
3) To show parents how they can support their child in achieving their potential
4) To raise expectation and pride amongst parents and children
More to follow.

On Tuesday 26th March we had a lovely visit from Fleecefield Primary School. There were 30 super amazing year 5 students. 
Miss Smith and Miss Aktar organised  a Crime Scene Investigation Science Day which involved several exciting tasks to help solve the mystery. The students were given many pieces of evidence such as fingerprints and footprints which they needed to analyse and identify which suspect is the robber. The classroom was set up as a crime scene and the students were extremely enthusiastic and well behaved.
Both Miss Smith (KS4 Science Co-ordinator) and Miss Aktar (KS3 Co-ordinator) were very enthusiastic and the activity they have planned was much appreciated by Year 5 pupils. We all had an amazing time.

'Where learning is good, teachers use their subject knowledge to engage students, stimulate their thinking and set specific targets. In these more effective lessons, tasks are varied and interactive and take full account of students’ individual learning needs'
