Faculties

The Academy is divided into 5 Faculties, each led by an Assistant Principal. The five faculties contain tutor groups, whereby students are allocated to a tutor group within a specific subject area. The tutor and coordinator of the subject have the curricular and pastoral responsibility for their tutees. Student Support Services' role is to oversee provision in key areas e.g. attendance and punctuality and student support across the other faculties. Faculties have responsibility for the Academic Achievement and Welfare of each student assigned to the faculty. Each faculty's student wears a tie with a stripe in their faculty colour.

Year groups are divided into tutor groups and are assigned a Faculty Tutor who will meet with the tutor group each day and monitor student progress and behaviour closely, liaising with parents as appropriate.  Each Faculty Tutor is lead by a Subject Coordinator who has overall responsibility of the academic and pastoral welfare of all students in their faculty.

Healthy competition between faculties will encourage teamwork and a sense of pride in achieving excellence in Sport, Enterprise, Academic Achievement, Attendance and contribution to the success of the Academy.
