From the Dixons McMillan Academy
Our goal is to create and maintain a high-performing, non-religious school that values diversity and maximises student accomplishment, as is the case with all Dixons Academies. We are a diligent and genuinely values-driven academy with a climate of high expectations and no room for lame justifications. Our core values of excellence, positivism, and respect serve as the foundation for everything we do, and they have fostered a culture of respect among all members of our learning and working communities. Our community as a whole wholeheartedly upholds our principles. We are aware that sharing a same set of values binds individuals and motivates them to work together to achieve a common objective. Our values are significant because they reflect our dedication to excellence, optimism, and respect in our actions and interactions on a daily basis. At McMillan, we make an effort to use these words as much as possible in conversation. At McMillan Academy, we make an effort to keep things straightforward and scholar learning in mind. In order to create tactics that remove obstacles to learning and guarantee all of our students are actively engaged at all times, we have drawn on some of the finest practises. Our three drivers, which are essential for academic and general life success, are being developed daily. Growth Mindset: making the most of our skills and capabilities by working hard, seeking guidance, and seizing any chance presented by setbacks to grow and learn.
