GCSE results 2018
Ipswich Academy students recently received their GCSE results. They made good progress, in line with national benchmarks, and this is a testament to the extremely hard work of our students and staff, as well as the support of parents/carers and the local community.
Ipswich Academy students visit France
On Friday 20th July, Ipswich Academy took four coaches of Year 7 and Year 10 students to Boulogne-sur-Mer in Northern France. Highlights included a trip to a chocolate factory where students made their own chocolate and a visit to Nausicaa, Europe’s largest sealife centre.
Students ordered food in French, and it was good to see the older students supporting the Year 7s.
Students were very enthusiastic, even at 4am, and their conduct throughout the trip was excellent. They were a credit to Ipswich Academy and Paradigm Trust.

Women in Engineering Day
To celebrate Women in Engineering Day on 23rd June 2018, Scottish Power launched a ‘No Waste World!’ education challenge. In teams, students were invited to investigate the sources of waste from their home or school and design a plan to reduce, reuse and recycle to achieve zero waste by 2020.
We are proud to announce that students Aviha, Kara, Katie and Kara from Ipswich Academy won the challenge! They were awarded £500 for the Academy’s science faculty. The Judges were impressed with their enthusiasm and the level of detail in their presentation.
