Welcome to Brackensdale Spencer Academy

At Brackensdale Spencer Academy, we are committed to providing high-quality education for all children and a caring ethos in which each individual achieves their full potential. Our 3 values are woven into everything we do at school and you will hear the children and adults referring to them regularly throughout the day.

At Brackensdale education is about developing the whole child and providing opportunities for them to flourish within and beyond the classroom.  Our children are at the heart of everything we do and we pride ourselves on maintaining positive relationships with home.

In addition to being a highly valued local school, Brackensdale Spencer Academy provides a professional learning community for teachers, parents and carers. Working to provide an exemplary education for local children, we partner with local schools; community groups and other education providers under the umbrella of The Spencer Academies Trust.
