This is designed to help students and families break the boundaries of what we "can do" to make what we "aspire to do" a reality.
Our aim is to produce confident well rounded individuals and in addition to all the traditional academic subjects vocational subjects, performing arts and PE are all well represented in our curriculum with excellent facilities.
For our staff, our welcome is warm and you will be joining a friendly team of committed professionals who have high expectations of themselves and their students. The Academy is committed to promoting and developing staff wellbeing and has a superb programme of professional development for every stage of your career.
