Information about this school
The academy currently has students in Year 7 and 8 so it is smaller than the average-sized secondary school. In 2018, with students in Years 7 to 13, the number on roll is predicted to rise to 720 but the academy will still be smaller than the average-sized secondary school.
The large majority of students are from minority ethnic backgrounds. Very few students are at an early stage of learning to speak English. The proportion of students eligible for support through the pupil premium (additional government funding for students known to be eligible for free school meals, children who are looked after by the local authority and children of service families) is high.
The proportion of students supported through school action is above average. The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is below average. The academy opened as a free school in September 2012.
There are currently 19 teaching staff, 10 of whom joined the academy in the autumn term of 2013. No students attend off-site provision. The academy is part of the Dixons Multi-Academy Trust.
