Spring Term Update

Following the government's announcement that we are now entering a third national lockdown, the academy is closed to all pupils except vulnerable and key worker children, until February halfterm.
Whilst working from home, all students should follow their normal timetable and all online learning activities will be posted on Google Classroom.
Samuel Whitbread Academy is a popular and highly successful upper school (Years 9-13) of 1650 students which includes 450 in the Sixth Form and is the largest school in Central Bedfordshire Local Authority.
We offer an exceptional academic and extracurricular experience at Samuel Whitbread Academy in an outstanding learning environment where students are expected to work hard and achieve their best. In our last Ofsted inspection, we were judged as ‘Good’ with many outstanding features and over the next three years we have set ourselves the target of being Outstanding!
