Mission Statement

Our Mission

Through Christian principles, we aim to offer an education that transforms lives and communities. Everyone in our academy community deserves to be cared for unconditionally and valued equally as a unique creation, made in the image of God.

In our learning, in our work, in our relationships and in the ways in which we organise our community we are committed to valuing:

• The work and person of Jesus Christ, his example and his teaching;
• The equality of every young person in our academy, as being created in the image of God;
• Good relationships, based on mutual respect, trust, forgiveness and a fresh start every day;
• The importance of accepting the responsibility to make good choices, irrespective of the circumstances we may face;
• The contribution made by families, community groups and others to the well-being, education and nurture of our students and;
• The pursuit of excellence in every area of our lives, so that we can all reach our full potential.
• Although a Church of England Academy, ASA is open to students of all faiths or none.

Our mission, lived out day by day, is underpinned by our core Christian values of:

• Respect
• Community
• Courage
• Wisdom
