Our Academy opened in September 2013 with 120 students in Year 7 and has grown year on year with our Sixth Form opening in September 2018 and our founding cohort completing prestigious and exciting university courses last September.
Through love, nurture and a rigorous academic focus, our vision is to support every child and help them to achieve their full potential, becoming model citizens and future leaders. All students are welcome with us, regardless of starting point, need or complexity. We are totally inclusive and believe that all students here will ‘Climb the STAIRS to Greatness’ and reach our two end goals of getting their dream job and becoming a model citizen. We are unapologetically ambitious for all of our students. We put in place support and stilts to help every student meet our high expectations rather than ever lowering the bar.
We are delighted that you are considering joining our clever, committed and kind staff team in our relentless pursuit of the very best outcomes both academic and beyond, for the young people of South London. 11 years into our journey, with 2 Outstanding Ofsted inspections and some excellent outcomes secured, we remain just as committed to our ethos of continual improvement as we were when we first opened. Of everything, we are most proud of the aspirational and resilient young people leaving us who go on to thrive in purposeful and challenging further education.
In joining our team, you can expect a united, caring and sociable staff body, an SLT committed to making our school a rewarding and sustainable place to work and a commitment to your development meaning the highest quality CPD and weekly coaching.
