We believe that students should have a rounded experience, built on achieving the best possible academic outcomes and engaging with as diverse and broad an experience of Academy and community life as possible.

In order to further develop this ethos, raise expectations around the importance of engagement from everyone and to celebrate success, we have Pledges. Students are awarded Pledges for their wider contribution to Academy and local community life.

Pledges help students gain confidence, increases their self-esteem, and opens up opportunities to them within the Academy.
