We are committed to developing links with parents/carers and the wider community. Please feel free to contact me directly via e-mail at adam.smith@theedgeacademy.co.uk if I can be of assistance in any way.
Our aim is to communicate regularly with our community through the following various websites, letters and social media platforms:
We have excellent links with our family of local schools in South Birmingham. We also work with a variety of schools across the Midlands (including central and north Birmingham, The Black Country, Worcestershire, and Warwickshire) and would be delighted to hear from schools, businesses and any other institutions who wish to play a role in supporting our students!
Over the course of the last eighteen months, we have been pleased to gain a wide range of local and national recognition. We have been awarded Skills Builder “Silver School Status”; “Trauma Informed Attachment Aware Status”; won the Midlands Education Awards: “Outstanding Support for Students Award” and the UK’s “Alternative Provision Team of the Year Award” at the National PRUsAP Conference.
The Edge Academy is immensely proud and honoured to announce that it has been awarded “When the Adults Change” Partner School status. This recognises the truly special culture at the school built on relational practice, emotional connections, and trauma and nurture-informed approaches to positive behaviour management. The Edge Academy is the very first alternative provision school in the United Kingdom to achieve this distinction.
