**Farnborough Spencer Academy**

Farnborough Spencer Academy is an exciting place to be and, since joining the Spencer Academies Trust in 2018, we have gone from strength to strength. As a community, we have agreed the type of Academy we are, expressed in our Academy motto “We Are Proud”.

We make no apology for having high expectations of all. This includes colleagues, and we enjoy working with a brilliant staff team who will go the extra mile to ensure all our students succeed. This ensures that we develop positive relationships within the academy and with our wider community in Clifton and Nottingham.

Our Academy ethos is summed up in our Academy and student pledges:
**The staff of the Academy make this pledge to our students and families**:

- We believe in your right to receive a first-class education.
- We show **pride **in our academy community by valuing everyone for who they are.
- We recognise and nurture your talents and abilities, supporting you to achieve in all that you do.
- We have consistently high expectations of our whole academy community.
- We create an environment where all feel safe, secure and supported.
- We want your eyes opened to life’s opportunities so that you aim high.

If you want to join our Academy, we can promise you:

- A calm school environment with well-behaved and polite students.
- A collegiate staff team, within which you will be supported to develop your own practice.
- Clear, simple, routines and structure which support the progress of all students.

Our staff work collaboratively with students and their parents to develop positive relationships, spark imaginations and encourage and enthuse the young people we educate to be the very best version of themselves. Whilst there is a strong emphasis on academic achievement, students are given the support and guidance to develop as individuals, and we offer a wide range of extra-curricular activities outside the classroom.

SAT is an educational charity, Multi-Academy Trust and Sponsor of Academies. We have approaching 16000 children and young people in our academies and employ more than 2200 teachers, leaders and educational support professionals across the East Midlands. We aspire to be a leading regional high performing Trust, with a national reputation for excellence.

We currently have 16 primary academies, 8 secondary academies and one primary aged special school in our family of schools. All of our schools benefit from the collaboration and added value that being a member of our Trust offers, and share our values and beliefs. Spencer Trust academies share an ambition to deliver results that compete with the very highest performing schools in the country, and deliver a curriculum for students that is underpinned by breadth, opportunity and quality: one that seeks to give young people the opportunity to develop into well rounded global citizens that believe they can influence positive change in the world.

**Mission**

Our Mission is to deliver the best possible outcomes for children and young people.

**Vision**

Spencer Academies Trust is an exceptional Trust, providing an outstanding education for local children.

**We Believe**:

- All children have a right to a quality education regardless of background or ability, and have an entitlement to the opportunity of a secure progression route in their learning and development.
- Schools are stronger when they work in collaboration with each other, operate within a ‘family’ and are open to a true sense of partnership.
- We grow the effectiveness and sustainability of our schools by developing the people within them, and that through shared and equitable responsibility for quality and outcomes; we achieve more.
