Here, at Granville Academy, we are on a truly exciting journey of improving standards and outcomes in our pursuit of excellence.

We are already seeing results with good behaviour recognised in our recent Ofsted report.

Good behaviour provides the foundations for high quality teaching and learning to thrive. It allows teachers to focus on their craft and to teach well.

High quality teaching is sacrosanct and is the absolute focus of our next chapter ensuring that great teaching impacts positively on the outcomes of all within our care.


Our visitors tell us that our academy offers them a warm welcome with a calm atmosphere conducive to high quality teaching and learning.

We are a passionate and committed group of staff who support each other to be the best that we can be.


Our vision is to ensure that all the children and young people in our care have the opportunity to fulfil their potential through achieving highly, regardless of their ability or background.

At Granville Academy we believe in working hard, being kind and choosing wisely.

We are privileged to work in a community where we have a positive impact on children's lives and future every day.


We are looking to appoint a highly effective and motivated Education Welfare Officer to work in partnership with the pastoral team and Assistant Principal to support, improve and maintain high levels of attendance.
