Leaders and governors have a firm commitment to a rounded education in its fullest sense. This is characterised by a challenging academic curriculum entitlement for all, based around exceptional choice and underpinning effective progression. There is a commitment to languages for all within the comprehensive Ebacc package. The options process is extensive, with a wide range of genuine subject choices including a vocational offer directly linked to potential next steps for employment, education or training. The Academy believes that life skills acquisition through a taught and additional curriculum offer is fundamental to a provision which seeks to develop the whole child.
We aim to provide an extensive extra-curricular offer both within and beyond the academy day, allied to an inclusive approach that commits to wider educational contexts regardless of the impact on headline results.
