We’re delighted to share that we will be setting up a Parent–Teacher Association (PTA) — and we would love for parents and carers to get involved!

The PTA’s aim is simple: to support the school, raise funds for resources and experiences that benefit our children, and bring families together. From film nights and bake sales to fun community events , the PTA will help us build a strong, connected school community.

You don’t need lots of time or any special skills — all help is welcome, and we’d love to meet you and hear your ideas!

Whether you can spare a few minutes, lend a hand at an event, share suggestions, or simply stay in the loop, it all makes a difference

PROUD POST

We received a letter from the Secretary of State for Education celebrating the amazing outcomes achieved by our disadvantaged pupils in the 2024/2025 academic year!

"Congratulations to you and your team on the excellent outcomes the disadvantaged pupils at Bilsthorpe Flying High Academy achieved at the end of the 2024/25 academic year. Your school’s performance places it among the very best nationally, and this is a significant achievement.

This success reflects the dedication of your staff and the hard work of your pupils. It shows what can be achieved when ambition and commitment come together. Thank you for everything you do to give children the best possible opportunities to succeed.

Your school’s achievements demonstrate what is possible, and I hope you will continue to share your experience and best practice with others. Even the strongest schools can go further. We encourage you to lead the way as a system leader - sharing effective practice, championing networks, supporting collaboration, and helping raise standards across the sector.

Please pass on my thanks and congratulations to your staff and pupils. I look forward to working with you as we strive together to raise standards for all".

Secretary of State for Department for Education

📺✨ F2 News Reporters in Action! ✨📺
The F2 children recorded their very own news articles this week 🎤📰! As part of our writing sequence ✏️📖, the children explored the features of a script, had a go at writing and sequencing their own scripts, and then recorded them to inform the general public 🗣️ about what happened in the story.

Year 6 had great fun in science this week!

Following on from their learning about Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution, the children took part in an exciting experiment. They investigated which type of ‘beak’ was best suited to each island, testing ideas and making predictions along the way. Fantastic teamwork, curiosity and scientific thinking on display!

F2 have been busy learning all about their local environment! They enjoyed a walk around the village, spotting and ticking off features including the school, park, pub, church, shop and library
