London
Having opened in September 2009 we are now an established, successful and
oversubscribed Academy. Every year, over 700 students want to join us in Year 7.
Our brilliant Sixth Form also attracts hundreds of external applicants every
year. Throughout their time at Chelsea Academy students flourish, benefitting
from a rich academic curriculum and strong pastoral care. Learning is designed
to excite, inspire and challenge. Through our science specialism we ensure that
every student has a thorough understanding of science and we offer a unique
range of scientific opportunities and visitors to students from Year 7 through
to Year 13. Our vision: ‘Learning together to flourish’, is lived out every day;
a vision informed by our Christian values. These values of forgiveness, joy,
perseverance, charity and servant leadership are an integral part of our journey
to success. Visitors always comment on the sense of purpose, of belonging and of
our commitment to diversity and inclusion. Our mission: Work Hard, Be Kind, No
Excuses provides students with a compass to guide and direct their journey. The
Chelsea Academy Way for Behaviour clearly sets out our expectations so that
every student understands how they should conduct themselves. We have a longer
school day than most other local schools. Each day (apart from Wednesday) is
made up of six, 55 minute lessons. Our curriculum is broad in Year 7, 8 and 9,
allowing students to discover subjects such as Citizenship and languages, in
addition to the core building block subjects such as English, Maths and Science,
before they choose their GCSE options for the two year GCSE programme starting
in Year 10. Our Extended Curriculum offer ensures that our students also benefit
from having a rich ‘all round’ experience. By the time students leave the
Academy they will have developed the resilience, wisdom, hope and skills with
which to lead happy, healthy and fulfilling lives. This website holds a range of
information no matter your interest in the Academy. The news section of the
website and our twitter feed are regularly updated with what we have been up to.
Please take a look! Parents and carers, do visit the Parent Portal, which has
content specifically for you. If you are interested in joining us as a member of
staff, then the careers section has what you need. Current students and staff
can access emails, calendars and Google drive through the Chelsea Academy
Learning Cloud (CALC). I am exceptionally proud and privileged to lead Chelsea
Academy. It is a wonderful, dynamic and fast moving environment. We benefit from
being in a fantastic London location and take advantage of excellent
partnerships, both local and further afield. The Academy is also very fortunate
to have an outstanding board of governors. They are very much invested and
interested in the Academy. Please feel free to arrange a visit to the Academy or
to contact us for further information. If you are intending to visit and find
out more about the Academy for your Y5 or 6 child please do visit our Admissions
page, where you should find all the information you need.
