Chelsea Academy aspires to and demands excellence in everything it does. It is guided by the Ofsted criteria for outstanding schools and is building on proven methods found in other high-achieving schools.
In his previous school, the Principal of Chelsea Academy, Andy Yarrow, was recognised by Ofsted for using "his exceptional talents to build a leadership team of highly motivated individuals who constantly strive for excellence". Qualified and experienced teachers with a track record of success in their former schools have been employed. Strong senior leadership helps to ensure high standards and aspirations from the outset.
Students are expected to work hard and demonstrate exemplary standards of behaviour, both within and beyond the Academy. In particular, behaviour which damages other students' education is not tolerated. Parents and carers are expected to support fully, and play their part in reinforcing, the Academy's ethos and expectations on a day-to-day basis.
Andy Yarrow comments: "An effective partnership between parents, teachers and associate staff, based on mutual respect and teamwork, is vital for the success of your child's education, and for Chelsea Academy itself. Talking daily to your child about what is going on at school, together with establishing agreed homework routines will make a difference to his or her progress."
Parents are able to use their home or office computer to get regular information and feedback about their child's progress. There are also many other opportunities for parents to become involved in the life and development of the Academy.
Chelsea Academy wants students to take great pride in their uniform, and for the uniform to help our students be positive ambassadors for the school in the local community. The uniform is both traditional in style and smart in appearance. Parents are expected to ensure that students are properly dressed and equipped for school.
