WELCOME FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Mathieu Stevens

I am privileged to welcome you to Leigh Academy Minster, an institution where innovation and excellence combine with respect and integrity to ensure all young people who study with us go on to lead happy, successful lives. We are a newly established mixed secondary academy dedicated to providing an excellent, well-rounded education for children in our fantastic community. 

As Principal of Leigh Academy Minster I am unapologetic in my commitment to our young people, ensuring that all students are provided with a high quality, internationally-influenced academic curriculum that showcases and celebrates the rich history of the Island. Our small school, human-scale education model, delivered through a college structure, ensures the educational experience for every student is personalised to ensure they are successful. Students will be held to a high standard, and will be challenged to fulfil their ambitions through the academy’s strong culture of academic achievement and respect. 

I am a strong believer that education has the ability to change lives, and our academy is steadfast in its commitment to provide students the opportunity to develop themselves both academically and personally through the integration of both traditional and digital approaches to learning. Central to this approach is a student’s ownership and responsibility for their own learning. We are dedicated to equipping our young people with the resources, opportunities, and support they need to grow in all areas of their academic and personal lives, working closely with their families.
