Southfields Academy

Aspire @ Southfields is the community arm of the college and we continue to work closely with our community of primary schools, secondary schools and special schools alongside adult and community learning to engage everyone in lifelong learning and an active lifestyle. In 2011 we opened the 'nursery@aspire' to fulfil our vision of 'cradle to grave' learning. We have gained an Artsmark award for our excellence in Art & Design, Dance, Drama and Music and a National Healthy Schools Award for our excellent catering provision for our students. As an employer based initial teacher training provider we continue to train graduates from industry, and PGCE students, many of whom we employ leading us to be in the enviable position of being fully staffed in every curriculum area. We work in close collaboration with the Wandsworth City Learning Centre which is on site to give all stake holders, especially our students, opportunities through ICT. Our ICT facilities are industry standard therefore enabling our students to learn on up-to-date equipment. We believe in a true partnership between all stake holders - teachers, support staff, students, parents, governors and the wider community - to support what we want to achieve: high quality teaching and learning with high expectations of the standards of behaviour. Our aim is for our students to be happy in their learning and become citizens who ultimately, in whichever path they choose to take, are successful in their lives. We hope you will visit the college and enjoy meeting and talking to the staff and students. You will be given a warm welcome. We are proud to be the Principal and the Headteacher of Southfields Community College.
