At Strood Academy we are relentless in our mission to ensure that all pupils receive an excellent education that leads to real choice in life. We are committed to our pupils, supporting them to flourish as individuals ready for the 21st century. We offer our pupils a commitment to excellence based on high-quality teaching and a wide range of experiences beyond the classroom.

We have a growing roll call of 1400 children, including 200 in Sixth Form. Working in our academy takes a lot of dedication and hard work, but for the right individuals, it can be an incredibly rewarding experience and contribute significantly to personal and professional development.

Our collective mission through our small school model ensures our pupils receive a world class IB education which allows them to become highly ambitious, successful citizens who are well positioned to create a better world. We set unapologetically high expectations, challenging our pupils to believe in their ability and have the choice in life they truly deserve. We ensure our pupils are at the forefront of tomorrow.

At Strood Academy we are working to achieve Vision 2028 which is underpinned by 10 foundations. These foundations are at the cornerstone of all that we say, we think and we do. Whilst we set upon our journey to excellence, our foundations will remain the key ingredients for success; they will remain constant and enable us to achieve Vision 2028. Vision 2028 has been developed in collaboration with LAT Vision 2030 to ensure a Trust approach to continuous academy improvement.
