The Raise Academy opened in September 2024. The school specialises in supporting pupils aged 11-16 with social, emotional and mental health difficulties, primarily from the Halton and St Helens areas. The school provides a calm, safe and welcoming environment for pupils that might have struggled to succeed in traditional educational settings.

The Raise Academy pupils have the opportunity to be engaged in a wide range of vocational and practical subjects providing them with new opportunities to progress personally, socially and academically. The curriculum is underpinned by high quality and supportive Maths, English and Science and all lessons are taught in small classes of up to 8 pupils, with teachers, learning mentors and pastoral/teaching assistants.

Our vision for The Raise Academy is to work tirelessly to provide excellence for every student. We hope to capture a newfound curiosity and imagination to help all become the best versions of themselves leading to high quality academic and vocational achievement and positive post-16 destinations.

The Raise Academy also provides the opportunity for you as educators, and those supporting education to make a real difference in an environment that supports your professional development.

I hope you will want to join our team to help shape our school and create an aspirational environment for our pupils. Please get in touch if you have any questions and I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely

Paul Eager, Executive Headteacher
