Academy Overview

Our most recent Ofsted inspection in September 2023, saw us being judged strongly good in all areas. Our current SIAMS grading is outstanding. Both inspections evidence our excellent quality of education and commitment to ensure all students flourish both academically and pastorally. Recent outcomes at GCSE and A Level demonstrate strong progress for all students with the Academy's GCSE results this summer being the highest the Academy has ever achieved. However, we are much more than a successful, academically focused school. We believe in educating the whole child and our Christian values of joy, perseverance, servant leadership, charity and forgiveness underpin everything we stand for. It is important that all of our staff, whether they are teachers or not, work closely with our young people and ensure that they are successful in all that they do. We are looking for staff who will always go the extra mile for our young people and believe that education happens both in and out of the classroom.

Chelsea Academy has a strong community of collaboration and support for all our staff. We are a friendly and thriving environment to work and grow both personally and professionally. Our staff are friendly and supportive. We want all of our teachers to be excellent practitioners, passionate and inspired by their subject, and so offer unrivalled professional development and support. This includes an early closure for students every Wednesday to allow for meetings and CPD (including opportunities to regularly visit other schools for Early Career Teachers recently newly qualified teachers) and a thriving in-house Teaching & LearningLead Practitioner team that coaches and supports staff across the Academy. Through the Chelsea Academy Way for Learning we have a simple, flexible and consistent way of developing outstanding teaching. Most of our senior and middle leaders started as teachers with us and have developed into highly talented practitioners. We offer internal and external training including a broad range of opportunities through the NPQ programmethrough NPQML & NPQSL - your professional development is important to us. Academy staff have access to a wide range of benefits. These include the CycleScheme, a private healthcare package, 24 hour GP service, physiotherapy and a confidential well-being support line as well as a chromebook laptop and free lunch.

We are a diverse inner city science specialist academy based just off the King's Road in Chelsea and are co-sponsored by both the London Diocesan Board for Schools and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Chelsea Academy combines traditional educational values and high academic and behaviour standards with an innovative approach to learning and teaching. The Academy's historic specialism is the sciences, and as such we have strong links with local organisations such as Imperial College, The Science Museum and Chelsea Physic Garden. As a Church of England sponsored academy we welcome staff, students and parents/carers from all faiths but expect all employees to have regard for our Christian values that are demonstrated through the taught and non-taught curriculum
