From the Hammersmith Academy
Hammersmith Academy is a secondary co-educational school for students aged 11 to 18, and it is non-denominational and all-ability.
We encourage our pupils to reach their greatest potential by instilling pride and confidence in them.
Through a culture of achievement, Hammersmith Academy makes sure that children are content, safe, and secure in their learning and grow into self-assured, independent learners who are respected members of their community.
Having strong leadership qualities and a professional approach will increase your employability.
We urge students to go beyond what they think is possible, to work hard, to be resilient, and to motivate one another to achieve extraordinary accomplishment.
They must have a "can do" attitude, be dedicated to being the best they can be, and communicate these expectations to the pupils.
First, intellectual strength, particularly in the areas of literacy and mathematics, which serve as the foundation for a successful existence.
Thirdly, social power is the development of our social and moral duty as engaged citizens. The second power is economic power, which is a thorough awareness of the connections between self-management and problem solving skills.
Through a challenging and interesting curriculum where our methods are similar to those used in the real world of business, we help students develop the skills they need to lead successful lives.
Students are given the chance to make decisions, take ownership of their learning, and deepen their interests through the use of a broad experiential approach.
It is effective to inspire a desire for knowledge through instruction.
It helps pupils learn difficult ideas and refine their critical-thinking, analytical, and assessment abilities.
Our philosophy of success as an individual, a team, and a learning organisation is centred on leadership.
We constantly strive to improve the calibre of our work and look for motivation both inside and outside the Academy.
Future leaders, our students acquire a strong feeling of pride in their own work, which enables them to encourage others.
Students are expected to recognise accomplishment, celebrate it, and support their neighbourhood.
Every adult is required to take the lead and create a culture of performance.
Every adult is expected to behave honourably and assume personal accountability for acting in the best interests of the pupils.
