Granville Academy is a part of Affinity Learning Partnership. We are a Multi Academy Trust currently based in Staffordshire and Derbyshire, consisting of 3 Secondary Academies and 4 Primary Academies.
We are on a journey of improving standards and outcomes in our pursuit of excellence. The academy was judged to be good against all areas of the Ofsted framework in our recent inspection, and we are committed to continuous improvement to ensure that we give our students the best possible outcomes, experiences, and opportunities.
Good behaviour provides the foundations for high-quality teaching and learning to thrive. It allows teachers to focus on their craft. High-quality teaching is the absolute focus of our next chapter, ensuring that great teaching impacts positively on exceptional outcomes for all within our care.
PSHE is an important part of our curriculum and our wider personal development offer. The academy benefits from a small team of staff who are well led with a developed scheme of learning. These lessons place a strong emphasis on reading and writing as substantive components, directly supporting the academy's priority of literacy and extended writing.
We are invested in strong pedagogy in a supportive learning environment where teachers can teach effectively. Join us on this exciting journey and make a real difference in students' lives.

You must be confident in the delivery of both areas at KS3 and KS4 and have the ambition and dedication to continue to support the development of the curriculum.

Positive relationships between staff and students are a key strength of the Academy. We are truly inclusive and will not tolerate discrimination of any kind. We promote tolerance, respect, and fairness, which are the fabric of our ethos.
Our vision is to ensure that all children and young people in our care have the opportunity to fulfil their potential through achieving highly, regardless of their ability or background.
