Our School
Curledge Street Academy is a modern, exciting and stimulating environment in which our children are encouraged to do their very best and reach their potential. During their time at our Academy, our students will be supported and encouraged by adults who are committed to ensuring that they are safe, healthy and happy. We want them to understand and develop the skills and qualities of excellent learners to enable them to take full advantage of all the opportunities that present themselves in the future.
We have four clear values that we aim to promote in our children, Respect Collaboration, Creativity and Independence. Everyone at Curledge Street Academy believes in these values and behaves in ways which promote these.
Curledge Street Academy positively encourages emotional health and well-being. We support our children to develop confidence, resilience and recognition of their strengths and talents whatever they may be.
