Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy - Empowering Students to Achieve Their True Potential

At Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy, we are committed to delivering exceptional education for all our students. With learning at the heart of everything we do, MVPA continues to raise expectations and achievement in Hackney and its neighbouring boroughs with the belief that all students can fulfil their true potential. Our students receive outstanding lessons, enjoy a vibrant enrichment programme, and benefit from debate, speech-making, and presentation training through our Oratory specialism. Our exceptional teaching staff work in a rewarding environment where everyone strives to deliver the best possible outcomes for our students.

The Mossbourne Federation

The Mossbourne Federation is a thriving network of Primary, Secondary, and Sixth Form academies providing the children of Hackney, East London and Thurrock, Essex, with an outstanding education from 4 to 18 years of age. We deliver the highest quality of teaching and learning across a broad curriculum, underpinned by high expectations of every student and our Federation values of: Excellence, Unity, and No Excuses. Our staff strive towards a common goal: to be the best we can be, ensuring every student, teacher, and member of staff fulfils their potential. We value continuous improvement, are always learning, and consistently look for better ways to improve our practice. We are a supportive family that shares experiences, knowledge, and ideas in an environment that encourages collaboration and challenge.

Located within the metropolitan boroughs of Hackney, East London and Thurrock, Essex,  all Mossbourne Federation academies are close to London Overground stations, providing an easy commute for colleagues living in other London boroughs. London’s fashionable East and West Ends are also within easy reach.

The Mossbourne Federation is actively seeking to increase the proportion of our workforce who come from diverse backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from people of Black, Asian, and other minority ethnic descent. Injustice, discrimination, and intolerance go against the core tenets of the Mossbourne ethos. We actively reject discrimination in our academies through continuous review of our working policies and practices across the federation, including at board level. We are committed to developing and supporting inclusivity, diversity, and anti-racism in every facet of what we do.

The Mossbourne Ethos

Through upholding these values, Mossbourne schools are, without exception, exceptional.
