Tamworth Enterprise College
Description
Tamworth Enterprise College - An AET Academy. "To make our best better". "May I take this opportunity to ‘welcome’ you to Tamworth Enterprise College. I hope you will find the information contained within our prospectus both interesting and helpful.
Your child is understandably the most important person to you and will be to ourselves.
At Tamworth Enterprise College we aim to offer a first class education matched to the individual skills and abilities of every student. Inorder to achieve this we seek to develop and maintain highly effective relationships between staff, students and parents/carers at all times.
Clearly, successful academic outcomes are important. We are immensely proud that over recent years we have continued to see students achieve at the highest levels and also to see students of all abilities improving significantly from their starting point in Year 7.
Our expectation is that we will meet national standards in terms of the progress our students make during their time with us.
However, we do not measure the success of our students by their examination results alone. We continually strive to develop your child’s self-confidence, enhance their self-belief and encourage their self-esteem so that they are equipped to build a happy and fulfilled life.
Our expectations of ourselves, our students and of you as parents and carers are high in order to achieve what must be common aims. An excellent attitude, high standards of appearance, good manners, full attendance and punctuality are paramount to achieving good discipline and academic success, and emotional and physical well-being.
We believe Tamworth Enterprise College is a thriving and vibrant school where all students, whatever their ability, will flourish, and comments made by visitors to our school often reflect this.
I welcome you taking the time to visit us in order to judge for yourself and I look forward to meeting you."
Simon Turney
Principal
