Welcome to Aston Manor Academy – a successful 11-18 mixed Academy in the heart of Birmingham Welcome to Aston Manor Academy and sixth form. A successful 11-18 mixed Academy in the heart of Birmingham, serving the inner city communities of Aston, Handsworth and Nechells.
Having been part of Aston Manor Academy for the last 20 years, I have seen exam results in the Academy, both at GCSE and Sixth Form, improve dramatically over the years. Progress made by students is well above the national average and continues to improve year on year; an outstanding achievement made possible by the students and staff working exceptionally hard.
As an Academy, we are committed to ensuring that every child succeeds. As always, sport excels at Aston Manor. We have students competing at national level and our Sixth form sporting success has led to a number of students gaining scholarships overseas.
We have developed a strong partnership with Aston Villa Football Club, and Aston Basketball is fast becoming a centre of excellence.
