All Saints Church of England Academy

To all of our Year 6 pupils who will join us in September, their parents, carers and families…Welcome to All Saints!

We will arrange an Information Evening in June and also there will be an induction day for pupils in July. We will provide all the information you need at these events. However, if you have questions that you would like to ask us, please email transition@allsaints-academy.co.uk

At All Saints, we work in partnership with our primary schools to ensure pupils’ progression to secondary school is successful. In this section of the website, we want to introduce you to All Saints, our staff and our school. We hope that you will help you have an understanding of what the next stage of your education will look like as part of our community.

We know that starting secondary school an exciting time for pupils. It can also be a daunting one at the same time for you and your parents/carers…try not worry – we will support you along the way!

If you scroll down this welcome page, you will find a drone tour and photo gallery which you can view to start to get to know the site.

We carefully place pupils in tutor groups based on the information we receive from our primary schools. As part of the Transition programme, we will shortly introduce our Year 7 team which includes our tutors and the Head of Year.

Drone Tour and 360 Videos

Below you will find our drone video footage of All Saints school. The aerial perspective offers a unique and comprehensive view of the school’s beautiful campus, showcasing its architecture and surrounding landscapes in a way that ground-level photos simply can’t. The sweeping shots capture the vibrant school environment, highlighting the grounds and facilities. Additionally, the drone footage provides a sense of the community spirit and the dynamic activities taking place, making viewers feel more connected to the school.

Whether you’re a prospective student, a parent or guardian, these videos can evoke a sense of pride and nostalgia, offering an engaging way to appreciate the school’s charm and vitality!

In addition, we also have a link to the 360-degree photos of All Saints School. This is a fantastic experience to discover, as it allows you to explore the school from every angle, giving you a true sense of its layout and atmosphere. These immersive images let you virtually walk through the halls, classrooms, and outdoor spaces, making you feel as if you’re actually there. It’s a great way to appreciate the school’s environment, whether you’re a prospective student, a parent, or just curious about the school. The interactive nature of 360-degree photos makes the experience engaging and informative, offering a comprehensive view that traditional photos just can’t match.

Online Communication System “Applicaa, Admissions+”

We use an online communication system, “Applicaa, Admissions+” which enables us to gather all of the pupil information needed as part of the admissions process and keep you up to date.

Following an offer for a place in September Year 7 you will receive an email to log in to this system to provide the information we require. If your email has changed since you submitted your application (via Dorset Council) or you did not provide one, please contact mrslewendon@allsaints-academy.co.uk or 01305 830601 to provide the details.

Year 7 will sometimes be hard work, but it is also a lot of fun! Throughout the year, we will run trips & events where you can get to know each other better and explore a whole range of extracurricular opportunities. We have one golden rule, which is to treat others the way you wish to be treated and to help us live in this way, we ask pupils to be ready, to show respect and to be safe at all times.

At All Saints, our high expectations lead to high achievement, and we always are ready to reward and celebrate success and community spirit in its many forms. We believe you will have a fantastic experience with us, and we will do everything we can to help you achieve this!
