Our Environment is important to us at Redeemed People’s Academy; visitors frequently express how special and warm a place it is and they recognize how full of laughter and productivity the classrooms, corridors and social areas are as they walk around the School. Parents comment on the excellent relationships between staff and pupils – relaxed but always respectful. The rapport, encouragement and support available to every single child, pupil and student create an atmosphere where children can develop happily and progress successfully. If you choose Redeemed Peoples’ Academy, you will become part of something very special. Since it was established in 1997 the School has been described as forward-looking, nurturing in its approach and academically strong. We are a dynamic organisation, fleet of foot and always ready to move with the times.
Here in RPA, we strive to help our students achieve maximum potential in the classroom, but at the same time benefits them by retaining a socially educational environment in some subjects and outside the classroom.
Academic success is also integral to us at RPA, but we do not measure success through league tables alone. We put as much emphasis on who our Students become as on what they achieve. With this in mind, social and personal development are crucial. We celebrate individuality and teamwork, and our aim is to produce free-thinking young people with belief in themselves, confidence to pursue their ambitions and the resilience to succeed, whatever life presents. Alongside this we believe that the privilege of excellent education brings with it responsibility and we send young people out into the world who are ready to make a real and positive contribution to society.
