Description

It is the second school to be named under Mossbourne Academy.[1] The school was created in 2014: the building formerly used by Cardinal Pole Roman Catholic School was first built to drawings by Robert Lewis Roumieu for the French Hospital (La Providence), which opened there in 1865.[2] In the summer of 2019 the first cohort's GCSE results placed the academy in the top 65 schools in England for student progress. Its current [when?] headteacher is Matthew Toothe.

Buildings

The school has two buildings: the Huguenot building and the Carroll building which is new and was officially opened in January 2015.

Policies

The school approaches its behavioural policy in regards to a 'no excuses' attitude. Each student is required to repeat the academy reflection before each lesson. It is as follows:

"Throughout this lesson I aspire to maintain an inquiring mind, a calm disposition and an attentive ear, so that in this class and all classes, I can fulfil my true potential."
