In February 2018, Bruntcliffe Academy was inspected by Ofsted for the first time since it became an academy as part of the highly successful and nationally recognised GORSE Academies Trust. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Good' overall. In addition to this, they judged Leadership and Management, Teaching and Learning, Personal Development and Welfare to be 'Outstanding'.

Within 3 years, Bruntcliffe Academy has transformed the educational landscape for its students and has improved its performance from the bottom 4% in schools nationally prior to academisation to the top 40% of schools by September 2017.

In June 2018, it was announced that after a highly successful 3 years at the school, principal Adam Ryder was to leave the academy in September 2018 to take up the position of principal at The Morley Academy. David Craine was appointed to succeed Ryder as principal of the academy.
