Values and vision
Winterbourne International Academy’s culture is based upon five key values: courtesy, resilience, integrity, self-reflection and purpose. It believes these values help to develop a strong sense of belonging, as well as good behaviour and attitudes. Teachers promote this culture throughout the secondary school, in classes and in assemblies, as a way to inspire and empower students.
Ofsted report
“The sixth form is good. Students are taught well, challenged to reach high standards and are given good advice about the next stages of their education and employment. The curriculum is strengthened by clear spiritual, moral, social and cultural guidance. Students demonstrate a good understanding of British values and know how to distinguish between what is right and what is wrong. Students are happy in the academy. Their behaviour in classrooms is good overall because they focus on their learning and show respect for teachers and one another.”
