Information about the School
The Basildon Academies is focused on developing the whole child; our curriculum has been developed to enable our students to develop their knowledge, understanding, and skills so that they will become lifelong learners. This includes opportunities for linguistic, mathematical, scientific, technical, human, social, physical, and artistic learning so that students make progress in a wide range of subjects. We set high expectations of all our students and this, in turn, ensures we create a positive climate for learning in which every student can reach their full potential. Our Academy is a calm, orderly, and purposeful environment where students enjoy their learning, make good progress, and feel safe. Our Sixth Form is a major part of the academy with the structure modelling itself on developing independent learning skills like those seen in universities which allows students to continue their studies in their specialist subject areas. Students are encouraged to become mature adults engaged in many aspects of the life of the academy, further developing those much-needed skills to go on into university or the world of work. All appointments are subject to safer recruitment requirements to ensure the safeguarding of children and young people. All positions will involve appropriate checks and clearances.
