About The Victory Academy
We are privileged to work in a stunning learning environment with excellent resources. One of our many strengths is having a strong programme of arts education, including a Platinum Artsmark award which is held by less than 1% of schools in England. We are also an accredited Thinking School.
The Victory Academy has strong links with the local community enabling us to draw upon a strong and rich local culture to support the personal development of young people. Naval links feature strongly in our vision for the school, we describe this as the ANT triad; Arts, Naval and Thinking.
We are focused on providing an education for all. Our belief is that each person is unique – every member of our community has gifts and talents that we seek to grow and channel. We offer a broad and balanced curriculum geared towards ensuring that our students will achieve their academic potential regardless of their starting points, and be dynamic members of society when they leave the Academy.
