From the Clacton Coastal Academy
We are happy to have you as a student at Clacton Coastal Academy.
Students now desire to attend the Academy every day as a result of the staff's unwavering emphasis on their progress, accomplishment, welfare, and happiness.
We have created a distinctive community ethos that is reflected in our declaration of The CCA Way because our goal is to achieve excellence via a full commitment to raising achievement within a framework of equal opportunity and inclusiveness.
Our goal is for The CCA Way to help people find successful jobs.
We care about our students' success for their whole lives, not just during their time with us.
As an academy, we also have the freedom to be inventive and unique in how we approach the teaching, organising, and curriculum.
For our young people, we want to open doors and minds to innovative and exciting options.
'
The Academy's programme of spiritual, moral, social, and cultural education has a significant influence on raising students' global consciousness and knowledge as well as on preparing them for life in contemporary Britain.
There are a tonne of other possibilities for students to develop their leadership abilities at CCA since we think that the greatest way for students to realise their full potential is to be stretched by novel and interesting learning experiences and to expand their personal skills, talents, and abilities.
Our goal is to instil a genuine feeling of self-belief in our kids, and we are effective in doing so.
Every student now has access to our "period 4" during the school day, which is designated as an extracurricular activity period.
Our learning resources are outstanding; we've made significant investments in information technology, and there are enough devices at the Academy to guarantee that every student has access to cutting-edge equipment in every lesson. Using Google Classroom as a forum for learning has had a big impact on student achievement.
Playing fields, gyms, a sports hall, dance and drama studios, a student-run restaurant, and a Lego Innovation Room are just a few of our learning facilities.
As a learning institution, CCA has high standards, and we are convinced that after seeing the Academy, you would concur that we provide the best possible instruction from a highly dedicated and qualified staff.
Additionally, we offer a nurturing learning environment that is safe, secure, and motivating, where your kid can grow in self-confidence and respect for others.
In exchange, we hold pupils to very high standards.
Attendance, behaviour, uniform and attitudes to learning are all monitored closely to achieve excellence and we demand the very best from all students.
Clacton Coastal Academy is proud to be part of a wider family of academies with the Academies Enterprise Trust and the opportunities for support, Innovation, collaboration, partnership and excellence that ensures that we fulfil our duty to inspire young people to make their best better.
