Aims

The Academy is dedicated to fostering a well-rounded and enriching experience that empowers each student to thrive academically, socially, and personally. 

Pursuit of Academic Excellence: Our foremost aim is to provide a top-tier education that nurtures critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and a strong foundation in various subjects. We're committed to equipping our students with the skills and knowledge they need to excel academically and succeed in their future endeavours. 

Holistic Growth and Development: We believe in nurturing the holistic development of our students, encompassing their intellectual, emotional, social, physical and moral growth. We prioritise the personal growth of each student, nurturing their self-esteem, self-awareness, and self-confidence. Through tailored support and recognition of individual strengths, we empower students to reach their full potential. 

Character, Values and Inclusion: Central to our mission is instilling values such as respect, responsibility, empathy, and integrity in our students. We believe that these character traits form the foundation of successful and compassionate individuals who positively impact society. Our inclusive environment celebrates diversity and develops an appreciation for different cultures and perspectives. 

Equipping with Life Skills: Beyond academics, we are dedicated to equipping our students with essential life skills, including effective communication, time management, teamwork, problem-solving and adaptability. These skills empower our students to navigate a range of real-world situations with confidence. 

Strong Partnerships: Our school is dedicated to cultivating responsible citizens who are actively engaged in their communities. We value the partnership between our school, parents, and the local community. By working collaboratively, we create a nurturing educational environment that supports students both within and beyond the classroom.

The Academy, Selsey is committed to actively promoting British Values throughout the Curriculum, both inside and outside of the classroom.  We understand British Values to mean democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.

Our students are encouraged to:

• Understand how citizens can influence decision-making through the democratic process

• Understand that equality is the cornerstone of British society and that tolerance of others is the application of this conviction

• Understand that the freedom to hold other faiths and beliefs is protected in law

• Have an acceptance that people have different faiths or beliefs to oneself

• Be accepting and tolerant of others, and know they should not be the cause of prejudicial or discriminatory behaviour

• Understand the importance of identifying and combatting discrimination
