Student Support

We will provide young people with a happy and secure environment in which to grow and develop. Happy, confident and challenged students become successful learners and fulfil their potential.

We aim to be a caring institution that takes its responsibility for the welfare of young people very seriously. We will strive to provide a happy, welcoming and secure learning environment for all.

A specialist induction programme will help your child to settle very easily into the Academy and to be ready to meet the new opportunities and challenges they will find here. Help will always be at hand if needed, either from other students, form tutors or year managers.

Your child will have a special relationship with their form tutor, cemented and strengthened by daily contact. The form tutor acts as a guide and mentor and monitors the progress and welfare of all students in the group, including attendance and punctuality.
Should you ever have any concerns or worries about your child’s welfare or progress, you should contact in the first instance the appropriate tutor, who will be happy to meet you.
