Significant events

• “Since the introduction of the Smartphone Policy in January 2024, the academy has seen 40% fewer detentions, a 75% reduction in internal truancy, and an 80% decrease in safeguarding incidents related to online abuse or cyberbullying.”
• “In 2024-25, over 200 educational trips and events ran, which has quadrupled pre-Covid levels.”
• “The academy won a number of awards during 2024-25, including the Artsmark Gold Award, a Global Inclusion Award from the International Forum of Inclusion Practitioners (IFIP), and a National Nurturing School Award.”
• “A teacher recruitment campaign with new branding was launched in spring 2025, including billboards on buses and at bus stops. Key features of this were highlighting the attractive package of benefits for staff, including additional 10% non-contact time, free wraparound care for primary school-aged children of staff, discounted fees at the on-site 'Outstanding' nursery, and free access to the new academy gym. Following this, all teaching positions were quickly filled for September 2025 and the HR team had a list of contact details for those who have registered an interest in future vacancies or opportunities.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
