Academy Information
Our Teaching and Learning
Our curriculum is creative, fun and interactive. We have high expectations for all pupils so that they reach their full potential - wherever that lies. W have created a curriculum which is broad and balanced by design and builds upon the knowledge, understanding and skills of all children as they progress through our academy, whatever their starting points.
Every day children practise their skills through well-planned lessons and throughout the week they work collaboratively across a range of subjects.
As they move through the school pupils develop the emotional vocabulary and social skills they need to succeed, both within or academy and in their chosen futures.
Our Wraparound Care
From 7.45 -8.45am, early birds at Desmond Anderson can enjoy a breakfast of buttered toast & jam, cereal, milk, yoghurt, fruit, and water.
Once the children have finished eating, they will engage in light board games and other activities in the hall before they are taken to their classrooms.
There is an additional charge for this service.
