The Kemnal Academies Trust (TKAT) is one of the largest multi-academy trusts in the South & East of England with 45 Primary, Secondary and Special Academies in the TKAT Family. Its ultimate aim is to ensure it drives educational standards through the provision of outstanding teaching, leadership and learning for all.
Located in Portsmouth, Miltoncross Academy is an 11-16 school for circa 900 students. Sitting at the heart of its community, and driven by its motto, 'Flourish', Miltoncross aspires to enable outstanding achievement, develop the highest aspirations for all and provide first rate opportunities for the children and adults who learn and work at the Academy. Focusing on precision teaching in classrooms which are free from distraction, Miltoncross strives to create and maintain an academically aspirant school where children work hard and learn well.
Miltoncross is determined for its students to receive a rounded education that enables them to be academically and personally successful. It aims to prepare its children and young adults to compete for the best college courses, university places and careers. Guided by the core values 'work hard, be kind, no excuses', Miltoncross students are set up to lead successful and happy adult lives, whatever they decide to do next.
Looking to the future, under the leadership of its Headteacher, Nick Giles, Miltoncross aims to maintain and improve upon its current 'Good' Ofsted rating, while continuing to demonstrate the significant value-add of its educational programme. It is hoped that enrolment will continue on its upwards trajectory and that more and more school leavers will progress into high quality further and higher education.
