These follow the English Baccalaureate suite of subjects – English, mathematics, science, modern foreign languages, geography and history. Outside of the Core subjects students follow a carousel of teaching in the Horizon or Innov8 curriculum. This broad and balanced curriculum focuses on developing knowledge and skills in computing, business, design, religious studies, PSHE, art, dance, drama and music.

We use strategies within the curriculum and beyond to ensure these values are communicated and acted upon.

At the Academyour spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) education permeates through the curriculum, supports the development of the ‘whole child’ and includes the teaching and development of British Values.

• Discovering Democracy Award for promoting youth participation and democracy in schools
