Wellington Academy buildings open in Ludgershall
In a week which was relentlessly packed full of big and exciting local events, I attended another; the opening of the new Wellington Academy buildings in Ludgershall on 13 May. We were privileged to welcome Michael Gove, the Secretary of State for Education and Lord Adonis, the original architect of the Academy scheme to the school last week and it was absolutely wonderful as a Governor to see the new site and talk to pupils about how proud and motivated they feel. With the new boarding facilities opening in September, a huge turnaround in exam results and plans to get the school working closely with the Castledown Business Park, the Wellington Academy is going from strength to strength.
