Commenting on this year’s results, Leon Wilson, Principal at The Hurlingham Academy, said:  

“This summer’s GCSE achievements firmly cement the progress we have made over the past five years and reflect our determination to become an ‘Outstanding’ school for the community we serve.

“Despite the recent challenges of the pandemic, students and staff have been resolute in their commitment to high standards and even higher levels of ambition – something which has shone through in the proportion of students achieving excellent grades in both English and maths.

“I could not be prouder of our young people and have every confidence that these GCSE grades are just the first step of what will be successful futures for them all. We can’t wait to see what they will achieve at Sixth Form and beyond.”

This week we hosted our first parent meetings of the year with the Year 7 Meet the Tutor Evening. It was fantastic to see so many parents come in to discuss how their children have settled into secondary school. We understand that the transition from primary to secondary is a significant moment, not only for the students, but for parents as well.


Newsletter 21.11.25

This week, I have taken some time to reflect on our relationships with the parents and carers of the pupils in our care. As a Head, I do my best to be open to feedback from all of our stakeholders, including staff, students and, of course, parents. This, to me, is one of the most important things we do as a school, as we will only be able to build a lasting culture of success for our students if home and school are working in unison to do so.


Newsletter 14.11.25

This week, I have been reflecting on the amazing community we have built here at The Hurlingham Academy. Last week, I wrote about the devastating effect of Hurricane Melissa and asked for any donations people were able to make. I can honestly say that the response has been phenomenal. Every day, I have seen pupils and parents arriving with shopping bags full of donations. I have been truly blown away by everyone’s generosity.


Newsletter 07.11.25

After a week of rest, reflection, and revision, both staff and students have returned to school this week full of energy and enthusiasm. For Year 11 students, I’m sure much of the half-term break was spent creating revision timetables and preparing for their upcoming mock exams.


Newsletter 24.10.25

Over the month of October, we have been very much looking outward at the world around us, with the commencement of Black History Month. For me, this is one of the most intellectually and emotionally engaging months of the year, as it gives us the opportunity to reflect on the profound impact of some truly inspirational individuals.

This week, our pupils have once again been at the heart of everything we do at the Academy. On Thursday, Mr Pudney hosted our first school council meeting of the academic year. I always look forward to hearing the feedback from these sessions. It's inspiring to learn what our pupils appreciate about the Academy, as well as the areas where they see room for improvement.

This week, I’ve been reflecting on the vital role our pupils play in the daily life of The Hurlingham Academy. Ultimately, the success of our academy is built on their contributions, and it’s been wonderful to see so many pupils stepping up.

It’s been an exciting week here at The Hurlingham Academy, marked by my favourite event in the school calendar: Open Evening. And this year’s certainly did not disappoint. In fact, I truly believe it was our most successful yet. Doors opened at 4:30pm, and within the first 25 minutes, we had already welcomed over 400 visitors through the door. From that moment on, the entire school was buzzing with energy and enthusiasm.
