Curriculum Intent

Pride black text

At The Streetly Academy we take PRIDE in all we do. 

 

Our intent is for all students to: 

 

  • Achieve Personal Excellence in every aspect of their school lives leading to academic success. 

  • Treat each other with Respect and Friendship. 

  • Experience Inspirational opportunities that will fuel lifelong ambition. 

  • Overcome challenges with Determination and Courage 

  • To champion the principles of social justice, British values, well-being, and Equality for all. 

These values sit at the heart of our school ethos and vision.

Our PRIDE ethos and curriculum pillars are what we consider to be key underlying principles that run through all aspects of school life at The Streetly Academy.
