Specialism

The Academy’s specialism in Business & Enterprise offers flexibility in focus and creates a strong link to employability. Moreover, our specialism promotes a sense of local and national pride whilst at the same time contributing substantially to a feeling of readiness for the world of work.

Our specialism allows an emphasis on employability in our fast-changing world and opportunities for exploring the themes of Creativity, Enterprise and Communication within a Global Context. It is certainly rich enough to offer students radically different experiences, outcomes, expectations and aspirations, meeting more closely the needs of the community within an ever wider context - Kent, the UK, Europe, the world.

We are committed to developing students who are resilient, resourceful and adaptable. They will leave us ready for whatever challenge the world of work throws at them, whether they be “captains of industry”, run their own small enterprise or provide the technical and vocational expertise that makes businesses successful.

Our specialism presents an opportunity to work in partnership with the Maidstone family of schools.
In particular, we work with schools which share our specialism to further enrich and broaden
opportunities for students.
