At Budmouth Academy, we are committed to creating an environment where every student feels safe, valued, and supported to achieve their very best.
We aim to:
- Provide a safe, calm, and positive atmosphere where learning can flourish.
- Celebrate achievements and build a culture of praise and encouragement, so every student has the opportunity to succeed.
- Establish clear routines and high expectations that are shared and understood by students, staff, and parents.
- Apply our standards consistently and fairly across all areas of academy life.
- Help students develop a strong sense of self-worth, engagement, and purpose.
- Strengthen relationships with parents and carers through open, honest, and effective communication.
Students’ interests always come first. Our decisions are guided by positive relationships built on mutual respect. We are committed to providing a learning environment free from disruption, where issues such as bullying, harassment, or violence are dealt with swiftly and in line with the Equality Act (2010).
Through our curriculum and wider school life, we also support the personal growth of every student – helping them to become knowledgeable, empathetic individuals who respect and value differences in themselves and others.
Our behaviour for learning ethos is built around our three core academy values: Respect, Excellence and Determination. These values shape how we expect our students to behave every day. Together, these expectations create a positive, supportive environment where all students can thrive.
