What the school offers its staff

St Peter’s Collegiate Academy is a Church of England Academy serving circa 1350 pupils including 250 pupils in the Sixth Form. Our faith is at the heart of every element of school life. Our values of Service, Respect and Aspiration are instilled in our students through our knowledge-rich curriculum, and our excellent pastoral care. We are extremely proud of the amazing work of our students and staff alike who strive to live out our Christian values in everything they do.

The Academy is located one mile from the centre of Wolverhampton, a city with a diverse community which is reflected in the multi-cultural and multi-faith dimensions of St Peter’s. The Academy has a rich history and a long legacy within the city which is centrally located with easy access to the M5, M6 and M54 motorways and is well-connected to the local metro and train services by two separate bus routes. Situated on Compton Park West it neighbours St Edmund's Academy and attracts pupils from across the city, with most pupils attending from local neighbourhoods.

In January 2023 our new Principal Mr Mullen-Furness started his new role. After previously working at St Peter’s, he is a familiar face to the community and lives locally.

Our core aim as an Academy is:

“To support our students in their pursuit of knowledge and wisdom, allowing them to flourish as lifelong learners seeking to love God and serve the community”.

Currently, while we seek to optimise the learning experience our current provision is adversely affected by our ageing facilities. Fortunately these will soon be replaced by the DfE funded school rebuilding programme which accounts for circa 80% of the Academy site and its facilities, providing pupils and staff with new learning environments better suited to the demands of 21st Century pedagogical practices.
