The Academy (Pupils aged 7yrs - 16yrs) With small classes, qualified teachers of the highest caliber, excellent pastoral care and a "family atmosphere" which we value, we offer a happy and safe environment to discover and gain a solid education. We care strongly for education and personal development and pride ourselves on the delivery of a stimulating curriculum delivered through innovative technologies. Believe & Succeed! We aim to keep our young "stars of tomorrow" realistic & motivated towards their careers, whilst engaging professional attitudes and disciplines. Progress is monitored very closely with internal assessments, homework and target setting The all-embracing educational curriculum at "Belcanto" follows closely alongside the foundation concept of the national curriculum. Pastoral Care is considered an important part of school life and pupil wellbeing is monitored closely. The Principal and Academic Head are available to speak with the pupils at any time, along with our caring staff members who encourage pupils to seek guidance where needed. Communication with parents is considered a two-way partnership. Mid-year and full written end of year reports are provided throughout the academic year and each pupil is personally profiled with targets and records of achievements throughout the curriculum. Parent evenings and open viewing days are held regularly where pupils? personal progress is discussed and shared.
