Creating Unimagined Futures
Who we are
Stone Soup Academy is a remarkable place, it shatters many preconceived notions about what Alternative Provision is and what the young people we work with are capable of. We have a dedicated team of teachers leading our education complimented by an engagement team offering support and guidance to students and teachers. Our training programmes continually recruit and train the next generation of staff who specialise in working with our young people.

OUR MISSION & VISION
Our mission is to give students the support they need to develop the skills necessary to re-engage with education and make significant progress in their personal and academic lives.
“Creating Unimagined Futures” is the vision of Stone Soup Academy. It is present in everything that we do and it is alive in the Academy. We don’t see barriers, we see opportunities and we all love what we do.
The foundation of our work is the ambition to create systems that equip young people who would otherwise be left behind. All too frequently, students who are deemed to be difficult or disruptive are faced with a future of unemployment or social disadvantage.

High Pavement
High Pavement is where the story of the school began. As its original home, this historic building represents the foundations of the school and remains an important part of its identity today.
The building provides a welcoming learning environment with classrooms and dedicated spaces for study and student life, combining the character of the school’s original home with the facilities needed for modern education.
