This is an exciting time at the Academy, as we
have made dramatic improvements and seen
a complete culture change in recent years,
resulting in growing numbers of children
applying for places.
We are part of the Frank Field Education
Trust, providing a firm foundation to enable us
to flourish. As an Academy within the Frank
Field Education Trust, schools will particularly
benefit from the Trust’s access to services that
will improve the support we can offer to all
students and families and also from the
opportunity to work with like-minded people,
who want the best for children and young
people.
The Academy works in partnership with
a number of schools both locally and
nationally, including our primary feeder
schools and colleges to ensure all students
have the very best opportunities and
outcomes.
Our vision is to provide:
• An exceptional academic education to all
children (Intellectual Capital)
• A values led approach to education for
every child (Cultural Capital)
• The right environment for every
child to flourish by building learning
communities in partnership with parents
and carers (Social Capital)
Achieving these commitments will ensure that,
when pupils leave the Academy, they are
ready for the next step in their journey; leaving
with the necessary skills and knowledge, and
the desire to serve others, to become the next
generation of leaders.
Our determination to do this, in its fullest
sense, resonates with our Academy motto
inspired by the words of Oscar Romero
“Aspire to be More”. I have very high
aspirations for the young people at Birches
Head Academy. I want the very best for them.
I want them to ‘Aspire to be More’.
If you feel you can make a contribution
to this important enterprise and help our
children to be the best that they can be, then I
look forward to receiving your application.
