I am delighted to welcome you to Q3 Academy Tipton. Our values of: kindness, ambition, resilience and respect run through Academy life like letters through a stick of rock and we are proud to describe our community with these words.

We acknowledge that we are a school of diversity and celebrate each child for their individualities in preparing them for ‘living life to the full’. Our curriculum is broad and challenging and provides opportunities for all students to be successful, building on their prior learning from Primary School and preparing them for life beyond school.

Alongside our supportive, yet challenging curriculum we offer many extra-curricular and wider opportunities to support students’ development and experiences beyond the academic. We unashamedly expect the highest of standards from all members of our community and hold our students to account by being: kind, ambitious, resilient and respectful.

Our mission is support our students to live life to the full in pursuit of what is good, right and true.
