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.

Today, our Y11 & Y13 students were treated to a well-deserved ice cream break from #JJs during lunchtime! Thankfully, the weather held off just long enough for everyone to enjoy their sweet treat outdoors. A perfect way to take a breather and celebrate all their hard work! https://t.co/kGyD6G5OUc
