Our academy is underpinned by an ethos of excellence, courage, commitment and ownership. We consider these to be integral to our students’ success and wellbeing.

Similarly we work closely with our Post 16 and other further education providers to ensure that students have the best possible opportunities for the next stage in their lives. Each student has a tutor to provide day to day care, and for those times when a little more support is needed we have a strong pastoral care team and a network of professionals to call upon.
