Values and vision

Hans Price Academy focuses on delivering outstanding academic results and supporting students to achieve their aspirations. The Weston-super-Mare secondary school supports students skills and talents and wants to develop their environmental, social and community responsibility. The secondary school has the motto: “Ready to Learn – Ready to Teach – Ready to Lead” and wants pupils to leave prepared for the next stage of their education or start of their career. Hans Price Academy is committed to providing students with a varied and enriching curriculum and offers a wide range of extra-curricular activities for them to get involved with outside of class.

Ofsted

“Most teachers create a positive, calm and encouraging atmosphere in their classes and work hard at planning activities, which are supported well by resources that interest and engage the students. High quality display work is particularly effective in promoting a learning environment conducive to work. The behaviour of students around the academy and in lessons is good. Students are polite and courteous to one another, to staff and to visitors. A significant strength of lessons is the good relationships between teachers and students and between different groups of students who support in each other in small-group and pair work”.
