WELCOME from the

PRINCIPAL

A very warm welcome to Eden Boys’ Leadership Academy, Birmingham East, where everything we do is informed by our overarching vision to nurture today’s young people and inspire tomorrow’s leaders.

We want our boys to become confident, well-rounded individuals, with real leadership potential and a strong moral foundation. All of our pupils will be encouraged to try their hardest and do their very best. They will develop the drive to succeed, the discipline and diligence required to realise their potential, and the resilience to overcome adversity.

With the support of our staff, governors, parents and the local community, our aim is to create a school that is defined by educational excellence, proud of its commitment to character development and instrumental in making a positive impact on the local community. From the very start, our pupils are encouraged to live by our STAR values of Service, Teamwork, Ambition and Respect – values that are ingrained in all that we are and everything we do. We want our pupils to realise that the essence of being an effective, respected and compassionate leader lies in a genuine commitment to helping others and changing lives for the better.

We understand what a huge impact education can have on a young person’s past, present and future, which is why we are committed to ensuring all of our pupils have access to outstanding teaching staff and a wealth of engaging and rewarding extra-curricular opportunities. Our curriculum is focused on academic success, with an emphasis on high expectations and exemplary behaviour within the context of a vibrant and engaging learning environment. We want our pupils to discover and develop their unique talents, with a view to them progressing to higher education and the career of their choice.

Our academy is part of a family of schools run by Star Academies. This means we will be following in the footsteps of some of the country’s top-performing schools and will benefit from the support of a wider professional community that has consistently achieved outstanding outcomes for children and young people. We will work in close partnership with, and build on the success of, other Trust schools – including our sister school in Perry Barr, Eden Boys’ School, Birmingham – to ensure our pupils are supported to excel academically, personally and socially.
