Welcome to Barnsley Academy where we acknowledge that learning is a lifelong journey and that we have a vital part to play in our local community.

Our mission, each and every day, is to provide an entitlement to excellence in the services that we offer for our students, our staff, our parents and our community.  Through this we aim to pursue the development of a 'lifelong love of learning' in us all and so bring out the best in everyone.
 

In brief Barnsley Academy exists to:

• Enable every individual to discover their talents, skills and interests
• Empower everyone involved so that each can maximise their potential
• Encourage each individual to know the value of hard work, self-discipline, service and tolerance
• Establish a Personal Best driven approach to the way we live our lives

At the heart of everything at Barnsley Academy are our core values and these are the foundation on which all else is based. 

We value:

• Honesty
• Aspiration
• Creativity
• Achievement
• Our Environment
• Each Other

These values provide us with the basis from which we can agree to move forward together, our stepping-stones to success.  We are proud of these values which we live by and which enable us to welcome those from all faiths or none.
