The Unsung Hero Award went to the academy's site manager, Ben Edwards, while the Something for Tea support team won team of the year.
A Kindness and Wellbeing award went to Lucy Howells and Making a Difference to Rachel Powell.
Headteacher, Julie Johnson, said: “I already know what an amazing team we have here at Shrewsbury Academy. However, these awards were incredible for the staff to receive and very well deserved.
