“A caring environment in which students develop a clear sense of values” (Ofsted, March 2011)

We are proud of our students and want every one of them to fulfil their true potential and be outstanding. Our highly qualified, committed staff know how to motivate and engage students in lessons. We have high expectations for all in terms of academic achievement, attitude and appearance. Our strong ethos of inclusion and vertical Family system of pastoral care provide students with an exceptional level of care, guidance and support. As part of their personal development programme students are required to complete four ‘Arcs of Achievement’ - excel academically; participate fully in enrichment opportunities; be leaders and role models, always presenting a professional and mature attitude to work; and contribute to the Academy and wider community. The opportunities we provide help our students grow into confident, resilient and well-rounded individuals. Ofsted Inspectors particularly praised our ‘clear procedures, which help ensure students make well-informed choices about their future lives”.

Our £18.7million investment programme will be finalised during the Autumn term of 2011, transforming the Academy into a world-class teaching and learning centre whilst also providing extensive enrichment spaces for students and the local community. The new building has been designed to meet the highest ecological and environmental specifications. Facilities include a dedicated Post-16 Centre; new science laboratories complete with science garden and exhibition area; food technology suite; new sports complex including sports hall, floodlit, all-weather pitches, dance studio, gym and fitness suite; a stunning new communal agora at the very heart of the Academy for lectures, assemblies, performances and exhibitions. ICT is used innovatively and creatively throughout the teaching and study areas to enhance the personalised learning culture.
