Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy is a coeducational secondary school located in the Victoria Park area of London, England, facing Well Street Common.
Description
It is the second school to be named under Mossbourne Academy.[1] The school was created in 2014: the building formerly used by Cardinal Pole Roman Catholic School was first built to drawings by Robert Lewis Roumieu for the French Hospital (La Providence), which opened there in 1865.[2] In the summer of 2019 the first cohort's GCSE results placed the academy in the top 65 schools in England for student progress. Its current headteacher is Matthew Toothe.
Buildings
The school has two buildings: the Huguenot building and the Carroll building which is new and was officially opened in January 2015.
Policies
The school approaches its behavioural policy in regards to a 'no excuses' attitude. Each student is required to repeat the academy reflection before each lesson. It is as follows:
"Throughout this lesson I aspire to maintain an inquiring mind, a calm disposition and an attentive ear, so that in this class and all classes, I can fulfil my true potential."
Alumni
- Sonny Perkins, a professional football player who has played for West Ham United F.C. and Leeds United F.C., studied at Mossbourne.
