About Us
Welcome to Appleton Gate Sports Academy and thank you for taking the time to visit our website. We’ve tried to give you a flavour of what it is like to be a student here and the great range of opportunities, both in and out of the classroom.
Located in a spacious campus, first-class facilities all combine to provide a uniquely rounded learning experience for Appleton Gate SA students. That rounded approach is really what sets us apart. From day one we are dedicated to blending academic excellence with a wealth of experiences beyond the classroom.
It is with great privilege and honour to introduce myself as the Headteacher of Appleton Gate Sports Academy part of Invictus Education Trust. I am excited to take on this role as I have an unwavering commitment to transforming the lives of the pupils within the community I am here to serve. I know, from experience as a parent, that our young people thrive when they feel confident and comfortable in the community around them.
By helping students to excel in mind, body and spirit, we aim to help them unlock and fully realise their true potential. Today’s staff and pupils are living proof of the clear benefits offered by that ethos.

"Anything is possible"
I believe in providing an education that not only ensures students gain outstanding results, but also teaches them the key ingredients to succeed in today’s society, focusing on the importance of respect, integrity, honesty and the willingness to grasp opportunities. I have a sporting background and therefore appreciate the value of belonging, teamwork and pride that comes with the opportunity to showcase skill. I know that as part of Invictus the opportunities are endless for our students and I am excited to see what the students from Appleton Gate can achieve.
This website aims to set out what makes Appleton Gate SA special, but it is no substitute for coming to see for yourself. We strongly encourage you to come and experience our wonderful setting and meet the Headteacher, staff and pupils, who will be happy to show you around. This will give you an opportunity to discover what it is like to be a pupil at Appleton Gate SA and get a feel for day-to-day life at the School.
Promoting British Values

The Key Values are:
