Our Secondary Academy and Sixth Form is located just outside Greenwich.
Since the creation of the Trust, a large number of new senior staff have been appointed. There has been an extensive programme of refurbishment and investment in technology, and a considerable effort has gone into making the academy environment into something that inspires and motivates learners.
Our learners are making progress that is above the national average. GCSE grades improved markedly, as did the proportion of learners achieving Grade 5 or higher in both English and Mathematics. The academy has an active Arts & Design department. There is also effective support for learners with special educational needs (SEND) and a strong culture of safeguarding.
The Trust recognises that our staff are our most value asset and investing in our people is a key strategic priority. An extensive program of staff development is operated within school and across the Trust, and this is extended to senior and middle leaders, aspiring leaders, and teaching and associate staff.
