Children get one chance with their education and at Jerry Clay Academy we want this to be the best. Our curriculum is ambitious & carefully tailored to ensure it is knowledge-rich, sequential and ultimately prepares our children well for their future. There is a driving determination to ensure that pupils and adults in the school reach their full potential; ‘to be the best that we can be’. Dance, drama, sports, school visits and musical opportunities are an important element of our curriculum. Here at Jerry Clay we aim to prepare your children for a future full of learning which will enable them to play a full and active part in the world they inherit.

The skills of co-operation, effective communication, confidence, self-discipline and self-motivation support our academic successes and will be key factors in your children’s future lives; we look forward to seeing them flourish within our secure and happy environment.

We have a strong passion for developing your child’s creative ability and believe that we should celebrate your child’s talents in all areas of the curriculum. We know that learning should not be compartmentalised and strive to use real purpose for learning to enthuse your child. It is important that children are acknowledged for their individuality and that this is celebrated. We believe that everyone is on an everlasting learning journey. Adults and children at Jerry Clay Academy ‘strive to be the best’ that we can be in everything we do, so that we can significantly impact the learning of ourselves and others. We want to ensure that we are constantly adapting to meet the needs of all of our learners in this exciting and ever-changing society.
