New Website for The Axholme Academy www.theaxholmeacademy.com The Axholme Academy has launched its new website following several months of development work with their design company. Principal, Joe Sellars, said ‘The site is much cleaner and it is now easier to find the information quickly. As well as providing a lot of important information, the website showcases the huge number and range of beneficial activities that we encourage our students to get involved in. The website has also been optimised for mobile phone use so information and news can be accessed on the go and there are easy to use links to our Facebook page and twitter accounts. In response to parent feedback, we have developed a much better academy calendar to keep everyone up to date with key dates including parents’ evenings, trips, visits and exam dates.’
