About
Stansfield Academy is an Alternative Provision Academy providing full time education for children from 4-16 years of age. We cover Central Devon including Exeter, East Devon and Mid Devon and work closely with Devon County Council to ensure a swift transition both into and out of the Academy to minimise the impact of any transition on the learning of those young people.

Emily Johnston

Emily worked in mainstream primary schools for fifteen years teaching across all Key Stages including Early Years Foundation Stage. During this time she took the role of SENDCo and Key Stage One Leader. Alongside teaching, her main focus was working with individual children to support and develop their social, emotional and behavioural needs.

Mo Hurley
Assistant Head of School
I qualified as a teacher in 2012 after serving 24 Years in the Royal Navy. My first educational job was as a volunteer mentor at a mainstream school before being taken on as a cover teacher. I did this for a couple of years and then taught ICT at the same school. I then decided to move in to Alternative Education and started at the Stansfield Academy in 2016 where I continued to teach ICT and then PSHE. In September 2019 I became the Assistant Head of School with responsibility for exams, data, careers and work experience amongst things. I am passionate about giving all of our learners the best that education can offer and always encourage them to never miss an opportunity!
