Students first: raising standards and transforming lives.

As communicated by the DFE, Outwood Academy Kirkby has now been ranked within the top 1% of schools in the country as 'most improved' out of 3452 schools.

About the Academy

We are delighted to be based in the market town of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, on the eastern edge of the Erewash Valley which separates Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire.

We are a welcoming and supportive academy, with a relentless determination to provide the very best education for every child. We place students at the centre of everything we do, with a focus on creating a culture of success and a positive climate for learning.

The Academy became part of the Outwood Family of Schools in 2022, and as a member of the Outwood Family we believe in putting Students First, raising standards and transforming lives.
