Congratulations to our Y11 students collecting their GCSE results today.

Their results reflect their hard work, determination and resilience throughout their time at our school. From outstanding individual achievements to fantastic progress across the board, there was plenty to celebrate today.

It has been fantastic to see our students celebrating their achievements and sharing their destinations for the next stage of their journey, whether that's sixth form, college, apprenticeships or beyond.

We're incredibly proud of every one of our Year 11 students. A huge thank you to our dedicated staff, families and everyone who has supported them along the way.

Congratulations, Year 11! We can't wait to see where vour journey takes you next.

Some of our new Year 7 students have joined us this week for an action-packed Summer School — and we have certainly broken the ice over the last couple of days! 🎉

From making Harry Potter-inspired spells 🪄 and getting creative in our art sessions 🎨, to having a go at drumming 🥁, there has been something for everyone. We’ve also enjoyed plenty of sporting activities 🏃‍♀️⚽ and had a very exciting visit from Safari Phil, who introduced us to some creepy crawlies and reptiles! 🐍🕷️

Our students have behaved impeccably throughout and have already made a fantastic impression. We’re incredibly proud of them and can’t wait to welcome them properly to Dixons Middleton Academy as they begin their secondary school journey with us in September. 💙

Well done, Year 7 — we’re looking forward to seeing you again very soon! 👏

…and just like that, our school is closed for the summer.

Today we congratulated our long term staff collecting their 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 year awards.

We know that our school is built on relationships and consistency, and these staff, who have shown such an impressive commitment to our school, deserve our thanks.

We wish all of our students and their families a happy and healthy summer break, and we look forward to seeing our new year 7s on Friday 4th September and the rest of the school on Monday 7th September.

Happy summer everyone!

Financial Literacy Campaign
Some of our year 8 students have been developing their financial literacy skills this month with the Manchester United Foundation. It was a brilliant session at Old Trafford where students developed their budgeting/ money management skills by addressing a range of real life financial challenges.
