Secondary Education

Our secondary academies combine a culture of high expectations with a focus on aspiration, which supports students to deliver to the best of their ability. We follow a broad and balanced curriculum with a wide range of extra-curricular activities.

This means:

• Well trained, highly resourced teachers—Our staff are ambitious for every student and encourage them to achieve to the best of their ability.
• Clear, well-communicated expectations—We ensure that young people know what is expected of them, both in regards to behaviour and standards, creating an environment conducive to learning in school.
• Varied enrichment and extracurriculars—Our secondary academies offer a variety of opportunities to explore sport, music, drama, the arts and more.
• Strong community connections—We emphasise a culture of community involvement, ensuring families are fully connected with their children’s education and school life.
• A culture of improvement without complacency—Young people at our secondary academies are provided with chances to grow and improve year after year and routinely challenged to push themselves.
• Thoughtful, effective governance—Our academies strive to ensure that they exceed expectations and operate efficiently in the service of our students’ success.
• Generous career support—Whether they choose to pursue university, apprenticeships or vocational training, every student receives a wealth of information and support to make the right choice for them.
