About Us
St Mark's Church of England Academy offers a commitment to high achievement within a community of care underpinned by Christian values. The Academy encourages the development of the moral and spiritual well-being of students, alongside their academic success. It works closely with, and is supported by, its sponsor, Anthem Trust and its key partner the Southwark Diocesan Board of Education.
St Mark’s vision is to provide an outstanding quality of education, dedicated to academic and character excellence and underpinned by the inclusive Christian values of love, hope and trust, which is shared by all. The Academy is committed to seeing ‘transformation for all’ and wants all individuals of all faiths and none, to be ‘transformed by the renewing of their minds’ (Romans 12:2) through learning, and to live ‘life in all its fulness’ (John 10:10). Above all, it serves to ensure that students will realise their God-given potential and have the ambition, confidence, cultural capital and employability skills to be successful in their future university and professional career. It is our mission that students will genuinely celebrate equality and diversity as benchmarks for a just, liberating and thriving society.
