Welcome to Acer Academy

Promoting learning excellence – Inclusion beyond the barriers.

Acer Academy is a new special school for pupils aged 11-16 years who have a diagnosis of Autism/SEMH, and we are part of Kings Academy Trust.

At Acer Academy we understand the enormous responsibility of preparing our pupils for their future lives. Our hope is that we can help children to become responsible citizens who will make a positive contribution to our ever changing society. At Acer Academy we encourage pupils to respect the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.

Moral Purpose

“We are united in the belief that together we can inspire all learners to dream, persevere and achieve so that we can change lives for the better now and for future generations to come.”
