the vale academy
The Vale Academy is situated in the small market town of Brigg in North
Lincolnshire. We are a successful and high-achieving school. We have an
excellent reputation and an established trend of high student outcomes which are
consistently above those achieved nationally. In January 2017, we moved into our
new building which provides state of the art facilities and an outstanding
learning environment for our students and staff. These new facilities will
enhance our excellent teaching and learning still further and will contribute to
our drive for on-going success. The academy is extremely popular and, although
we take most of our students from Brigg and the surrounding towns and villages,
a large number of families from outside the catchment area also select The Vale
as their secondary school of choice. Indeed, many students are prepared to
travel some distance to access the high quality education we offer. The change
to academy status in 2011 has brought with it many advantages, not least of
which is the opportunity to be part of the Delta Academies Trust. This is an
educational charity whose ethos is based on four founding principles which match
our own: Quality, Partnership, Aspiration and Responsibility. At The Vale
Academy, we pursue excellence for our students within all areas of their lives.
We expect them to aspire to be the best that they can be and to achieve the
highest possible academic standards. We also expect our students to develop into
caring and considerate young people, who will leave the academy to become
responsible citizens and make a valuable contribution to society. Indeed, we are
justly proud of our students’ positive attitudes and outstanding behaviour.
