Academy Welcome

It is a privilege to introduce myself as the Acting Principal of Ocean Academy. Having been part of the academy leadership team for the past three years, I am delighted to now lead our wonderful community as we continue to grow, learn and thrive together.

Ocean Academy is a school with a strong sense of ambition and belonging. We are proud to serve our community, providing an education that not only secures excellent academic progress but also develops the whole child. Our aim is for pupils to leave us as confident, resilient and compassionate young people, ready to make a positive difference in the world.

Our dedicated staff team works tirelessly to provide high-quality teaching, an engaging curriculum and a safe, supportive environment where every child is valued. We are driven by three guiding principles: self-worth, engagement and purpose. These principles underpin everything we do, ensuring that education inspires curiosity, creativity and a lifelong love of learning.

As Acting Principal, I am passionate about leading a happy and inclusive school where pupils, staff and parents work together to ensure that children grow into well-rounded individuals while upholding our core values. My vision and values align closely with Aspirations Academies Trust, which focuses on equipping every child with the skills and attributes they need to succeed in the future.

We know that children achieve their very best when school and home work hand in hand. Community is at the heart of Ocean Academy, and I look forward to continuing to strengthen these partnerships.

I warmly encourage you to explore our website to discover the many opportunities available to our pupils. Even better, please come and visit us in person. We would be delighted to welcome you and show you what makes Ocean Academy such a special place.
