Associate Headteacher's Welcome

Park Hall's core purpose is ‘the pursuit of excellence - in all that we do and all that we aim to achieve’; we work hard to encourage students to be the best that they can be, whether that is in academic studies, sport, music, arts and beyond.

We have a commitment to ensuring that all our young people benefit from everything the school has to offer. In addition to our strong culture, we are committed to providing a personalised learning experience through a curriculum – inside and outside of the classroom – that is both broad, balanced and well sequenced so that it allows students to know more and do more.

We also have high standards for students regarding attendance, punctuality, attitudes to learning and their willingness to take an active role in school life. Our staff body is a dedicated team of professionals, all of whom play their part to ensure students are happy, safe and successful. Our approach to discipline is based upon traditional values of hard work, self-discipline and respect. Alongside this we provide an excellent standard of pastoral care to ensure that students are well looked after and cared for.

The success of Park Hall Academy is based on the excellent relationships that are evident between the school, the students, and their parents or carers enabling the very best in educational opportunities to meet the needs of the students as they move either into Higher Education or employment, as well as contributing to the qualities that allow them to make significant contributions to society upon leaving school.
