Madeley Academy
Curriculum Overview
Madeley Academy is part of the Thomas Telford Multi Academy Trust (TTMAT). We have a thriving, vibrant learning environment which serves one of the most deprived communities in England; in the top quintile nationally for deprivation (0.38).
The Academy is one of the most popular schools in Telford attracting over 750 applications each year. Designing our curriculum provision takes in to account that in some year groups we have up to 45% of the students categorised as disadvantaged, requiring carefully planned accessibility to the same curriculum for all our students regardless of their characteristics.
One impact of this is that we have secured an enviable record of student destinations with 65% of our Year 13 students being the first in their family to attend University and in 2025, 36% of students progressed to ‘prestigious’ universities which is above the National Average figure. 100% of Year 11 in 2025 secured a destination with many staying on at our Sixth Form.
