Welcome

I am extremely proud to welcome you to Mossbourne Community Academy.

Mossbourne is the realisation of Sir Clive Bourne’s dream to provide the children of Hackney with an outstanding education. Mossbourne is built on a formula of high expectations, doing the simple things right, and the belief that all children can succeed. Mossbourne’s calm working atmosphere creates well-rounded individuals who excel in the arts, on the sporting field and academically. All learners, regardless of ability, benefit from the innovative and enlightened approaches to teaching and learning within the Academy.

OFSTED describes Mossbourne as “outstanding, but even within that category it is exceptional.” Inspectors were “enthralled by the hard work and dedication of our staff, and the excellent attitude our students have to learning.”

Mossbourne has raised educational achievement to the very highest levels. The Academy’s GCSE and A Level results are consistently outstanding, placing Mossbourne in the top 1% of schools in the country.

As one of the country’s leading academies, it is in the vanguard of school improvement. Working in the local community and within a strong partnership of Hackney schools, Mossbourne will raise aspirations, expectations and achievement for all students and will continue to make a major contribution to the development of educational excellence in Hackney.
