At Noel-Baker Academy, everything we do is underpinned by our passionate belief that outstanding schooling is the right of every child and a determination that such a vision is achievable. We believe that our students are entitled to the same breadth and depth of provision as any student attending any of the best schools in the country.
This is a vision shared with the L.E.A.D. Academy Trust, of which we are a part. We are on a journey towards excellence and believe that with persistent effort, hard work and patience, amazing things can and will be achieved for and by our young people.
We believe in and aspire to provide an inclusive education for all. That is, high expectations of and for all pupils, an insistence on excellent behaviour, equal access to an academically rigorous curriculum taught by highly skilled subject specialists and a sharp focus on high-value enrichment opportunities that will enable all students to excel.
We will never accept that family background, socio-economic circumstances or prior attainment will inevitably limit young people’s potential, and so the profile of our intake will always be a reason for our provision and never an excuse for our outcomes.
