Welcome from the Headteacher
Welcome to Lee Mount Academy. I am delighted to be able to take up the role of interim executive Headteacher until a permanent appointment can be made.
As the newest member of Impact Education Multi Academy Trust, Lee Mount is already benefitting from the added value being part of a Trust brings. Improvements in provision for all key stages has been a priority and an extensive programme of changes have already been made.
As the term and year progresses, I hope that all parents and stakeholders will be able to see and hear about the changes that have been made. Please make sure to read the regular newsletters, which will include all the most important information.
Lee Mount Academy is a ‘Can do School’ and we work hard to provide a happy, stimulating, and caring environment, where all children are valued. Our child-centred approach builds relationships, confidence, and teamwork alongside an aspiration that all children should reach their full academic potential.
We are keen to encourage children to have a ‘can do’ approach to their own learning and we actively teach children to be respectful, to develop resilience, to take responsibility and to reflect on their learning.
Our team of dedicated staff have high aspirations and want the best for every child in their care. We will always have time to talk about your child’s education and look forward to working with our families and the wider community to nurture readers, writers, and problem solvers for the future.
Best wishes,
Mrs Heathcote

Year 4 have had a fantastic trip to Whitby! We tackled the 199 steps and were in awe of the abbey, managed to spot some Whitby jet and had a delicious ice cream on the beach ☀️ 🍦 #trip #seaside #experiences @ImpactMAT
