The Discovery Academy is one largest Academies in the area, boasting a £21 million building with world class facilities and belonging to a forward-thinking Trust encompassing a number of successful local schools. Our purpose is to deliver ambitious, high-quality teaching and learning every lesson, every day that overcomes inequality and allows every student to achieve success”.

As an academy we have created a culture centred around our core values of Pride, Respect and Commitment to ensure high expectations, positive relationships and support for all our students.  I believe having high expectations of behaviour and attitudes enables teachers to teach and students to develop in a caring, supportive environment.

At the heart of everything we do is an unremitting desire for our students to become successful and responsible young people who make a positive contribution to our school and wider community.  We work tirelessly to develop the whole child through a range of experiences and opportunities to develop those soft skills, positive believes and values essential in everyday life.

Parents and our wider community are extremely important to the Academy and the learning journey of every student.  By working together and effectively communicating we have the opportunity to give our young people the best possible start in life.

This is a GOOD school
