Broadlands Academy is a small secondary school with a vibrant and diverse cohort. We work hard to cultivate a ‘family feel’ and sense of belonging for our students. We acknowledge that we are a school of diversity and celebrate each child for their individualities in preparing them for their ‘Remarkable’’ chosen pathway. 

Our curriculum is broad, challenging and provides opportunities for all students to be successful, building on their prior learning from Primary School. Intertwined with our  excellent Careers advice and strong links with employers and post 16 provides means that we are to prepare our students fully for their next steps.

Alongside our supportive, yet challenging curriculum, we offer many extra-curricular and wider opportunities to support students’ development and experiences beyond the academic. We unashamedly expect the highest of standards from all members of our community regardless of their background or starting point. We expect all our students will achieve the highest academic standards and hold our students to account through our ‘Disruption Free Learning’ environment. 

We are a proud member of the wider Lift Schools family, which is one of the largest education trusts in the UK.  As a school, we benefit directly from Lift’s expertise, support and systems; we also share their four core values, an excellent education for every child, in every classroom, every day which are intrinsic to our Broadlands  ethos:

• We recognise that we are all on a learning journey that will involve challenges as well as successes; our growth mindset helps us to take risks and learn from our mistakes.   

• We create a rich and dynamic learning environment that inspires our students to nurture their strengths and skills, and discover the opportunities available to them in the wider world.

• We believe that everything we do should reflect excellence, and strive to achieve our aspirational goals through effort and resilience. 

• We value and cherish every member of our community by showing kindness and respect to everyone, by championing fairness and by celebrating diversity.

Although we run fantastic Open Events and Primary Transition programmes, we also believe in having an open door policy all year round. Therefore, if you would like to see our vision and values in action, please do make an appointment to tour the school by contacting contactus@broadlandsacademy.org.

We look forward to warmly welcoming you to our truly fantastic Broadlands!
