About Us
We are an all-through school specialising in mathematics and citizenship serving children of all abilities. We are based in Wembley Park, set against the backdrop of the iconic Wembley Stadium.
Our commitment is to know every pupil as an individual and to foster the principles of team spirit, responsibility, and care for others. Our pupils enjoy both a nurturing environment and the social benefits of a small school and the range and resources of a large, well-equipped academy.
We are very proud of our reputation for academic excellence and the superb pastoral care our students receive along with the support we provide for the less academically able. We now want your help to enable us to go beyond outstanding and achieve 'excellence for all'.
Diversity and inclusion:
We aim to build a diverse and inclusive organisation where everyone - staff and students - can do their best work and achieve their full potential. We want to reflect and represent diverse perspectives across our organisation because we know that doing so will make us stronger and more effective.
Safeguarding statement:
Ark is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people in its academies. In order to meet this responsibility, its academies follow a rigorous selection process to discourage and screen out unsuitable applicants.
Ark requires all employees to undertake an enhanced DBS check. You are required, before appointment, to disclose any unspent conviction, cautions, reprimands or warnings under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. Non-disclosure may lead to termination of employment. However, disclosure of a criminal background will not necessarily debar you from employment - this will depend upon the nature of the offence(s) and when they occurred.
