Lightcliffe Academy
We educate the young people entrusted to our care by giving them a high standard of teaching and setting them appropriate challenges throughout their time with us. We expect all students, whatever their ability, to work hard and achieve their full potential. We expect them to conform to our firm but fair framework of positive discipline, in which we encourage them to take responsibility for themselves; but we deal firmly with those who do not behave appropriately.
We nurture our students by providing them with a safe, caring and loving environment in which to develop in self-confidence and understanding. As we are a smaller academy with fewer students, we are able to provide a calm and safe learning space for all, including our most vulnerable students and those with additional needs. We empower our young people by giving them opportunities to recognise and develop their potential and to express this within the school and in the wider community.
