Underpinned by our ‘3 Guiding Principles’ and ‘8 Conditions for Success’, our vision is to empower future generations to follow their dreams and to build a society of which we can all be proud.

Livingstone Academy students will: 

- Stand out among their peers. 

- Be knowledgeable and articulate communicators, who can work successfully in collaboration and independently. 

- Be creative and critical thinkers who, when faced with a problem, have the confidence and skill to tackle it. 

To achieve our vision, it is imperative that we build an incredible team of outstanding educators, who want to challenge themselves to think outside the box, be creative and work hard to achieve something special.
