At Durand, we believe that where you send your child to school will be one of the most important decisions you ever make. Our commitment to you is that every child that comes through our doors, no matter what their background or ability, is given the very best start in life. We currently have over 850 pupils across our two sites in Stockwell.
Durand Academy is a vibrant, growing school that achieves outstanding results and provides children in Lambeth with excellent facilities and opportunities. Durand Academy has always had high aspirations for children in Lambeth and set out to provide pupils with the same opportunities as those available to those in the private sector.
We aim to ensure that during their time at Durand Academy, pupils develop responsible and disciplined attitudes to learning and the skills and competencies necessary to move on to be successful young adults. At Durand Academy, our aim is that all children will receive a high-quality education that inspires them to reach their full potential.
During their time at school, they should be safe, secure and be encouraged to develop a love of learning. We aim to ensure that all children have equal access to the curriculum, regardless of ability, gender, race, or religion and that they acquire the necessary skills of literacy and numeracy to raise levels of achievement within and beyond the National Curriculum.
At Durand Academy, all children will experience a broad and balanced curriculum where knowledge, skills, and understanding can develop at a pace matched to individual needs. Children at Durand experience the security and satisfaction that comes from consistent good teaching, a stimulating learning environment, and ongoing active parental interest and support.
They develop an appreciation of the importance of responsible behavior, courtesy, and consideration for others and, last but not least, that their spiritual, moral, and cultural development is promoted, to prepare them to become valued members of an ever-changing, multi-cultural society.
