Landau Forte Academy Amington opened in September 2010 as another member of the family of schools operated by Landau Forte Charitable Trust.
Whilst the Academy is part of the national network of schools and Academies, it is owned and operated as an independent educational organisation providing free full time education for children from 11 to 19 years old. Currently we have approximately 800 students. The Academy has been established to bring together the worlds of business, industry and education in a uniquely productive partnership to secure the highest quality education for young people.
The Landau Forte Charitable Trust is the sponsor of the highly successful Landau Forte College in Derby. It was invited by Staffordshire County Council and DCSF to open an 11-18 Academy in Tamworth, Staffordshire. The project provided an exceptional opportunity to be closely involved in re-shaping education in Tamworth.
We are ambitious, every student is challenged to achieve their best. We are brave and face our problems together. We treat each other with kindness and respect one another’s values, beliefs and individuality. We are the best people we can be.
Our Academy; our community.
