Mossbourne Community Academy

Mossbourne Community Academy exists to enable all pupils to realise their full potential and inspire them to excel. Such was the vision and passion of the late Sir Clive Bourne, who firmly believed that all children must be given the opportunity to succeed, regardless of background or circumstance. Founding Mossbourne Community Academy in 2004, Sir Clive Bourne made it his mission to provide Hackney children a world-class education and drive the standards of educational provision in the borough. Staff and pupils of Mossbourne Community Academy have maintained the gold standard of provision and attainment year on year since its inception.

The academy has redefined national expectations of what is possible to achieve in an inner-city, non-selective academy – from the two ‘Outstanding’ OFSTED judgments and headline-grabbing exam results, all the way through to students annually gaining places at Oxbridge, Russell Group Universities, MIT and other world-renowned universities. Mossbourne Community Academy is a place for learning in which pupils and staff are expected to work hard and invest in their future and success is available to everybody. Courtesy, hard work and excellence are our guiding principles, which we embody alongside our Federation values of unity and no-excuses. Mossbourne Community Academy’s ethos is founded on a belief in simple and traditional values, which are combined with an innovative approach to learning. We believe that our children only deserve exceptional teaching and learning and guidance and always strive to deliver this.
