Foundation Academy
In our Foundation Academy we believe that the right curriculum opportunities will build a firm foundation for continued success for all our students. It is vital that students engage with their learning and that they are excited by the opportunities to enquire and explore across a wide range of subjects, developing a lifelong love of learning.

Sixth Form Academy
At Fortis Academy Sixth Form, every student receives the tools to promote their love of learning and thirst for knowledge in the specialist areas they have chosen to excel. Ultimately, every student will become a capable, active member of society who has the will and ability to enrich the lives of others.

All our young people’s talents and ambitions will be nurtured and grown. No child will be left behind.
