Academy Students

Students will work at PACE, ensuring Pride, Ambition, Care and Excellence for self, school and city.

• Pride is the cornerstone of our school community, reflecting the deep sense of honour and satisfaction in our collective achievements.
• Ambition drives us to continually reach for new heights and embrace challenges with unwavering determination.
• Care forms the compassionate heart of our school ethos, emphasising the importance of empathy, kindness and genuine concern for the well-being of others.
• Excellence serves as the guiding principle in all that we do, representing our unwavering commitment to achieving the highest standards of academic, personal and ethical excellence.

Students will be made aware of the following during their induction into the behaviour culture and at regular times during the academy year:

• The expected standard of behaviour they should be displaying at the academy and during their learning.
• That they have a duty as a young leader to follow the Behaviour Policy.
• The academy’s PACE values.
• The importance of attending school and punctuality.
• The various rewards they can earn for meeting the behaviour, culture and PACE standards, and the consequences they will face if they don’t meet the standard.
• The escalating behaviour policy which clearly outline the consequences of repeatedly not meeting Academy standards and expectations.
• The pastoral support that is available to them to help them meet the behavioural standards. This includes but is not limited to, mentoring, report cards, reflection sessions and intervention.
• Students will be supported to meet the behaviour standards and will be reminded of the expectations during each refresh assembly, academy assemblies and interactions with staff.
• Students will be asked to give feedback on their experience of the behaviour culture to support the evaluation, improvement and implementation of the behaviour policy.
• Extra support and induction will be provided for students who are mid-year or have missed key induction.
