Headteacher's Welcome

I am extremely proud to welcome you to Aldridge School. 

We aim to ensure that every young person achieves their potential by providing an education that challenges them intellectually and offers them a wide range of opportunities to develop and stretch their unique talents and interests. 

At Aldridge School, we believe that education is more than just grades. Grades are certainly the 'passport' that pupils need to move on to the next stage of their lives and we will do whatever it takes to ensure they are able to achieve their aspirations. However, the real art of education is to develop confident, resilient, and independent young people who are in possession of the 'passport' that grades provide. 

We feel that our aims are best achieved by providing a challenging learning environment that is built upon a formula of high expectations, inspired and passionate teaching, and strong pastoral support. 

We expect our pupils to arrive at school on time, complete their homework, bring the right equipment, and apply themselves to their studies with intellectual curiosity and academic endeavor. We have high expectations, but our staff work relentlessly to support our pupils in meeting these. 

If you share our values and aims and are interested in learning more about Aldridge School then I invite you to pay us a visit, meet some of our inspirational staff and pupils, and spend some time with us in school. 

Mr Worth
