Welcome to The Cheadle Academy

Welcome to The Cheadle Academy, a small 11-16 high school in the Staffordshire Moorlands. We are a distinctive school with polite, friendly, and thoughtful students, supported by a dedicated staff team who are prepared to ‘walk the extra mile’ to ensure every student achieves success. Our approach is highly personalised, focused on developing the knowledge, skills, and understanding of each individual. The ethos of our school places students at the heart of everything we do, and they are at the forefront of every decision we make.We are incredibly ambitious academically, ensuring our students secure the results they need to pursue further education, employment, or training. Alongside academic success, we are passionate about nurturing a love for art, music, reading, theatre, sport and culture, enriching students’ lives long into their future. Every experience counts, and our holistic approach shapes the lives of students, fostering the British values of respect and tolerance, and preparing them for a dynamic and competitive global workplace.Children need positivity, excellent role models, and a platform from which to shine. We make no apologies for upholding traditional values and high standards. We firmly believe that our students should be well-mannered, smartly dressed, and respectful of one another. These principles, alongside our supportive and close-knit community, help create a safe, caring and happy learning environment where every student can thrive. When our students develop in this way, they gain the ability to positively influence not only their own lives but the lives of others.We pride ourselves on the relationships between school and home, with an emphasis on students belonging and being proud to represent our school.At The Cheadle Academy we provide an environment where students are encouraged to be curious learners, value their community, develop a pioneering spirit and work hard to leave a lasting legacy for future generations.If you would like to find out more or see us at work, please contact us to arrange an appointment or join us at our Open Evening. We’d love to hear from you. I look forward to welcoming you to The Cheadle Academy.
