Our Teaching School, All Saints Teaching School Alliance, is running a highly successful School Direct programme and is now recruiting for 2018 and beyond. This exciting PGCE Teacher Education Training route for top graduates, in partnership with Plymouth Marjon University, uses a variety of school-based settings across Devon and enables trainees to experience a wide range of different learning environments.

We are extremely proud to announce that Ilsham C of E Academy have been awarded the Gold Quality Mark for Religious Education.

This award recognises our high quality RE, which provides our children with authentic experiences and contributing to whole school outcomes.

Our school has been appointed as a Read Write Inc. Model School for the academic years 2016/17 as a result of our excellent practice of Read Write Inc. Phonics. Read Write Inc., developed by Ruth Miskin, provides a whole-school approach to teaching literacy for 4-11-year-olds to create fluent readers, confident speakers and willing writers.

At the Learning Academy Partnership (LAP) we are committed to providing all of our staff with excellent and high quality professional development in order to impact upon children’s lives, and that it is the jewel in our crown. After a very rigorous and robust audit by the Teacher Development Trust Network, Ilsham C of E Academy has been given a Gold Award based on our professional development provision.
