Message from our Principal
As Principal at Star Academy, Sandyford I would like to introduce you to our Academy, which will provide you with an insight into what we do and the commitment we have to our community as a whole.
Star Academy is set in the heart of a diverse community where the shared motto is ‘Desire to learn, learn to achieve’.
Our Vision is underpinned by four key behaviour values: Smart/Safe, Tolerant, Ambitious, Resilient.
Daily routines work to embed these four values in order to ensure that our children grow not only academically, but with the strength of character that will lead to a successful future as a valued and healthy member of society.
The academy seeks to ensure that all stakeholders are empowered to achieve the highest of expectations through the provision of a bespoke, lively and exciting, knowledge-based curriculum that promotes enquiry and exploration, risk-taking and resilience. The curriculum nurtures the desire to achieve the very best - regardless of the children’s different starting points. Our broad curriculum is enriched with a huge variety of experiences which brings learning alive and makes precious memories.
