Attleborough Academy (AA) is an inclusive, friendly and effective learning community with high aspirations and a reputation for innovation. Excellent relationships between students and staff are at the heart of the ethos of the Academy and are often commented on by those who come in to visit.
The Academy is a hardworking and caring community of people with high standards and high expectations. Our core values use the word CARE as an acronym. They are: CARE, therefore, has a genuine meaning within our community as we want the Academy to be a place where these values are seen in all aspects of our work together.
There is a strong sense of unity here whereby relationships are built on respect, kindness and genuine mutual support. I ask all students and staff to give 'unconditional positive regard' to each other no matter what. There is a genuine sense of belonging here - whoever wears the blazer badge or lanyard is one of us who we care about and we care for.
