The central aim of The Hereford Academy is … ‘Enjoying life in all its fullness' Our aim of all students ‘ENJOYING LIFE IN ALL ITS FULLNESS' is underpinned by the four Academy values of Community, Service, Trust and Endurance. We achieve this by creating an environment where everybody can: o Enjoy achieving the best possible standards of performance o Develop a healthy lifestyle o Feel cared for and safe o Become a leader and make positive contributions to the development of The Academy and the wider community o Develop their social, moral, spiritual and cultural awareness to equip them for life in modern Britain o Be prepared to lead a successful life beyond school, seeking opportunities for continuing education, training and high quality employment We believe the key to realising this aspirational vision and developing the God given potential of all our students, is the fostering of positive relationships between students, staff and parents/carers. We pride ourselves on being caring and approachable, ensuring that our lessons encourage and develop a love of learning and a thirst for knowledge. To achieve this, focus is to concentrate on the student's individual needs, to personalise learning and provide the best possible range of activities and opportunities for the academic needs and social, moral, spiritual and cultural development of each student.
