Welcome
Paul WIllerton, Principal
We are resolute in our belief that schools make a difference. Lives and the communities that they serve are transformed by them. Every child deserves the right to a world class education and it is our core purpose to raise aspirations and improve outcomes for all.
The academy ethos is built around the highest expectations of all and we see it as our duty to ensure that students have the best life chances possible; leaving the academy well prepared to take their place in the world as confident and responsible adults.

Parking at the academy/leisure centre, when attending is expected to be very busy from 4.30pm. If parents/carers are able to find alternative means to travel to the event, possibly car share, or be dropped-off/collected, this would help ease congestion. All support appreciated. https://t.co/2fZ2lroWLC
