Our Academy
Welcome!
Spring Common Academy is a community special school for pupils aged 3-19 with special needs in the Huntingdon area.
We are extremely proud of the achievements of all our pupils and the dedication and care provided by the staff team. We aim to be the very best we can, and encourage all members of our school community to set high standards in whatever they do.
OFSTED found the school that 'Pupils are the beating heart of the school' in May 2024. They went onto note 'All receive high-quality support to meet their physical and social needs.' The inspectorate judged pupils to be safe in school and that 'wider opportunities which pupils receive are of an extremely high quality.'
Our pupils leave us as self-confident young people; ready to take on the many challenges that may face them after school, within the local community and the wider world.

Testimonials
"Thank you very much for taking the time to show me around the wonderful Spring Common. It was a fantastic opportunity for me to think about how our service can support [pupil's] transition into school. It was really lovely to meet enthusiastic learners who were genuinely happy in their school. Lots of natural conversation happened as we walked around the school, showing the positive relationship that the learners have with the staff. I am looking forward to working with Spring Common Academy."

"My son starts with Spring Common Academy this coming September 2024, [and] we are now coming to an end of his transition sessions.
I can’t thank the staff enough for the overwhelming amount of support that they have provided me with. [An] absolutely amazing team for our children to be growing with. Thank you to all staff at the school."

"What an exceptionally wonderful school Spring Common Academy is! My little one is thriving! The teachers and TAs are amazing, and are my heroes [and] I’m pretty sure they are also my son's heroes as well. He gets all of his needs met here, which is super important -no other school would have been suited to my son's needs. It’s been such a privilege to [have] gotten him a space here. I’ll forever be grateful."
