Principal's Message

We are part of the Future Academies Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) and share their high standards of excellence. With the support of our sponsors, we are able to engage with the best teachers, the best universities, and a wide range of prominent employers in the country to ensure that all our children are equipped with the knowledge, aspiration, and respect to obtain Libertas per cultum, ‘freedom through education’.

We create an inclusive environment where we provide high-quality education, enriching experiences, and character development. All stakeholders in the school share three core values:

• Respect: To have a positive attitude towards oneself and one’s community.
• Aspiration: To have concrete and deliberate goals.
• Knowledge: To actively pursue new understanding and skills.

The Grange Academy is honoured to serve this community and privileged to educate its young people. We welcome visits from parents at any time, both prospective and current, and I look forward to meeting you all.

 Libertas per Cultum

Our vision, culture, and core values are the multiplier that makes every decision, action, and interaction within the academy more effective. By ensuring that these values translate to actions and ultimately habits, every single student at The Grange Academy will achieve outcomes that will provide them with the freedom to compete with anyone in society, regardless of any challenges that they face. By taking ownership of their actions and understanding that these will determine their future success and create their character as an individual.

Our values and associated actions are outlined in our Home School Agreement. 

We take pride in our shared document that outlines how all stakeholders should work.
