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.

Congratulations to Y10 student Holly, whose poem has been accepted for publication @YoungWritersCW and will be published in August. The poem was inspired by the challenges young authors face when trying to get their work published – making this achievement all the more fitting!

A huge congratulations to our Year 8 Rowing Team! Last month, six of our amazing students competed against teams from 38 schools at the 2026 Rowing Regatta in Warrington. We are incredibly proud to announce that they finished 2nd place regionally and an outstanding 5th place overall against schools from across Liverpool, Runcorn, Widnes, Warrington and beyond! This is a fantastic achievement and a testament to their hard work, determination and teamwork. We are so proud of everything they have accomplished! #Proud #RowingSuccess #StudentAchievement #Year8

Congratulations to Year 8 student Alicja B, who has been named a winner in the Young Writers Stranger Sagas Competition! Alicja's outstanding entry was selected from more than 27,000 submissions, an incredible achievement that showcases her creativity and storytelling talent. As part of her success, Alicja received a trophy and a £100 Amazon voucher. Judge Mark Grist praised her work, saying: "Alicja, I loved your concept of waking up in different bodies, the narrator having to immediately adapt to their new surroundings. The slow creep of the host's emotions is effective and creepy, but then the ending takes the horror up even further, leaving so many questions. I want to read more!" We are incredibly proud of Alicja and her fantastic achievement. Well done! #StudentSuccess #YoungWriters #CreativeWriting
