It is a privilege to join KBA as Principal, to serve the local community and to be part of United Learning. At Kettering Buccleuch Academy, we have unapologetically high expectations rooted in a culture of ambition for all, where diversity, inclusion and the acceptance of others is central to our ethos and what we stand for. We believe in creating a dynamic and positive learning environment where the street stops at the gate and where every individual is supported to reach their aspirations.
We take a relentless approach to ensuring all students have the skills they need to overcome barriers and to develop a growth mindset in their pursuit of excellence. We are committed to providing an innovative, world-class education for all, where lessons are designed to foster a love of learning. Our focus on character development is integral to the curriculum and will support students into their next steps as active, well-prepared global citizens. Our values underpin everything we do, and as we move forward as a community, KBA will continue to ensure that our shared moral purpose remains at the heart of who we are.
I look forward to meeting and working with students, staff and families over the coming weeks and to working together to ensure we continue to be the support networks, role models and advocates for the young people in our care. The KBA community is warm and vibrant, and together we will ensure that every student strives for and achieves excellence.
