At The Victory Academy, we pride ourselves on being a welcoming and caring school. Our strong staff-pupil relationships create an environment where students know that we’ve got their back and genuinely care about their well-being – even those who find learning challenging. Here, pupils celebrate and respect each other’s uniqueness, echoing one student’s sentiment: 

“You can be who you want to be here.” (Ofsted 2023)
