The academy, based in Higher Blackley in North Manchester, has over 1,600 students on roll and is part of Co-op Academies Trust. Co-op Academy Manchester was recently judged ‘Good’ by Ofsted in March 2023. Ofsted said that: “Leaders, trustees and governors strive for all pupils at Co-op Academy Manchester to be successful. Pupils are encouraged to demonstrate the ‘ways of being Co-op’ in all that they do.” “Teachers have strong subject knowledge. They use their expertise to help pupils to learn well in lessons. Teachers who are not specialists in a subject receive appropriate and effective subject-specific training. This enables these teachers to deliver the curriculum equally well.” “Leaders have thought carefully about the curriculum that they want all pupils to learn, including those with SEND. The curriculum is well organised. Subject leaders have thought deeply about the key knowledge that pupils should learn and the order in which this content should be taught.” All our values are based upon the values of the Co-op Group, which will inform our behaviours.

We should all of us have equal chances to succeed. Equity: We want to look for the best in each other. Rewarding others fairly to encourage all types of achievement. Democracy: We will contribute our ideas to make the academy a success. Solidarity: We can achieve more by wor
