Welcome
I am delighted to welcome you to our brilliant, dynamic Academy, sponsored by both the Church of England and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Since becoming Principal in September 2020, I have ensured that all our students continue to flourish and excel through strong educational provision and unparalleled pastoral care. Our results this summer at both A Level and GCSE are testimony to a real focus on excellent teaching and learning and on preparing our students to be successful in their next steps.
Our Vision
‘Learning together to flourish’, is lived out every day; a vision informed by our Christian values. We believe in educating the whole child and our Christian values of joy, perseverance, servant leadership, charity and forgiveness underpin everything we stand for.
