About Tudor Academy
Work with us, and you’ll make an impact on our community – every day.
Tudor Academy is a happy academy, where the success of every child matters. We are proud of the education we offer our and believe strongly that a great education is one of the most precious gifts a child can receive.
How we work
Underpinning all we do is a belief that every moment a child is in school must be used effectively. If time is wasted, it is lost forever. So all our structures and policies are designed to maximise children’s learning while they are with us. We aim to make learning experiences varied and inclusive, and raising standards, particularly in Literacy and Numeracy, remains our main objective.
A UNICEF Rights Respecting School
As a STEP academy, our values – Passion, Urgency, Positivity, Aspiration and Commitment – are at the heart of everything we do. We provide an environment where children feel safe, valuable and respected and, as a Rights Respecting School, create many opportunities for them to take leading roles in school life. Meaning Tudor pupils become very confident and self-assured individuals.
