Torquay Academy

Torquay Academy is a heavily-oversubscribed secondary mainstream school for girls and boys between the ages of 11 and 18. There are approximately 1,400 students in the school, including our 6th Form.

We know that a world class school can only be built by having the very best teachers.  We invest in all of our staff and you will be working with colleagues who share a passion for teaching.  If you join us you will be signing up to the belief that “everyone succeeds” and that “every student who joins Torquay Academy is capable of going on to university”. It is important you share our goals and values.

We believe in effective discipline and support teachers with a strong pastoral team and centralised behaviour systems. We work hard to reduce unnecessary workload so that our teachers can focus on teaching great lessons. We invest in the professional development of all of our staff through 1-to-1 coaching, leadership development and high quality CPD.
