Us MacIntyre

Academies' mission is to become a leading Special Academy Trust that provides

outstanding outcome-focused state education by promoting high aspirations,

empowering parents as partners and successfully equipping every child for adult

life. We

currently have 4 Academies. Endeavour Academy in Oxford opened in 2014 and is a

residential academy for children and young people with autism and associated

severe Learning difficulties aged from 9 to 19 years old. In 2015 we opened Discovery Academy in

Nuneaton, for children with social, emotional and mental health needs and /or

autism. In 2017 we opened Quest Academy also catering for children with SEMH

and/or autism. Finally, in September 2020, Venture Academy based in

Henley-in-Arden joined the Trust catering for pupils in years 5-11 (ages 9-16)

who may have Social, Emotional and Mental Health Difficulties and/or Diagnoses

of Autism or an associated condition. MacIntyre
