Families, Home and the Community

Parents, carers and families are encouraged to take an active part in the progress of our students. Families are actively supported to be involved with the learning of their young people through effective home-school partnerships and personal links with Academy staff. They are essential partners in the development of young people’s learning goals, aspirations, monitoring progress and the broadening of their horizons.

Parents, carers and families are also learners within the community who have access to the Academy through an extended programmes of social and learning opportunities.

CfBT Academies are places for the whole community to enjoy, visit and use as a learning and leisure facility.

The flexibility of the Academies, also reflected in the school curriculum, is replicated in the evenings, at weekends and in the school holidays to serve the needs of the whole community. Members of the local community are welcomed and encouraged to be full and active learners and participants in the life of the Academy.
