The school makes a positive impact on the lives of students, as one parent shared: 'My child has been off school for over a year due to extreme anxiety and not being able to attend school. Academy21 has given my child another chance at education where she is thriving and enjoying school again. I cannot thank them enough.'

In any year we partner with over 1000 schools and local authority services to help them realise the best possible outcomes for young people who may be unable to attend school regularly due to medical or complex mental health issues to attendance or behavioural needs. Academy 21's mission is to build confidence, skills and provides a fresh start for many young people.
Through our live, interactive lessons and innovative technologies that boost the learning experience support thousands of students each year on a short or long term basis.
