Thomas Deacon Academy
Trust: we are honest
Discipline: we never give up
Aspiration: we want the very best
Thomas Deacon Academy was one of the first Academies to be created and continues to thrive through our core values of Trust, Discipline and Aspiration. As we enter the exciting new phase of our future we continue to offer an aspirational learning environment for students from the ages of 7 to 18 years old. Our modern facilities, TDA Junior, Sixth Form Study Centre and 43 acre campus allow us to provide the ultimate in educational choice.
Friendly, focused and highly student centric, the Sixth Form Team are decidedly committed to improving young people’s life chances and raising outcomes. Part of this strategy involves ensuring that all students have access to learning resources throughout the school day and are able to work effectively – this role, therefore, is integral to our quality provision. We want to continue to build upon our excellent value added scores within the sixth form and, ultimately, assist the students in our care to become mature, independent and responsible learners.
