Home Academy Agreement

The Home Academy Agreement

The Home Academy Agreement sets out what the Academy, parents/carers and the students agree together for the good order of the Academy and each individual within it.

The partnership between the Home and Academy is one of the most important influences on the education and personal development of our students. This agreement recognises the need for a good partnership between the Home and the Academy and seeks to build on it.
