It is my privilege to lead a team of highly trained and dedicated staff whose aim is to ensure that all of our students experience an educational journey that is positive and enriching. Many of our students have found the mainstream school setting challenging but develop a new attitude towards education at our academy.

Our core belief is that there should be “No Loss to Learning” and “No-One Left Behind and we operate our Academy on the principles of high expectations, integrity, tolerance and respect for others, constantly reinforcing these principles with the students as a way of life.

We offer a curriculum that aims to ensure all students achieve GCSE and vocational qualifications in between 5-8 subjects including English and Maths and we value deeply the possibilities that these outcomes will offer our students in their further education, employment or training. We provide high quality teaching, a regular and robust assessment process, enrichment activities, educational events and warm and welcoming environment for students, parents and all visitors.

Alongside our curriculum we offer a range of pastoral support through our own highly committed staff and through engagement with external agencies. The aim of this support is to develop students skills and resilience in removing barriers to progress and to help them in understanding and overcoming the challenges they may face in their lives.

We respect that all of our students are individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds and life-experiences. We passionately believe that by supporting them to achieve the best academic qualifications they can and helping them to develop their interpersonal skills and core values that all our students can achieve excellence fulfil their potential and access the full-range of opportunities available in society
