Welcome from the Principal

It is a pleasure to welcome you to Cedar Mount Academy. We have a rich, diverse community; of which we are extremely proud.

Cedar Mount Academy is part of Gorton Education Village, co-located with Melland High School and Rushbrook Primary School. Three excellent schools working together in the heart of our local community and on the doorstep of our great city of Manchester.

At Cedar Mount Academy, we believe that all students should learn to be the best version of themselves, so that they leave school after five years as happy, caring and knowledgeable learners. We prepare our students to take their place in the world and make a difference.

High quality education is the entitlement to powerful knowledge, through a knowledge-rich curriculum that offers equity of opportunity. A student at Cedar Mount Academy will be taught to think, to question and experience new ideas and skills.

At Cedar Mount Academy, we ensure students have access to a wide range of educational opportunities, both academic and extracurricular, that prepare them for their future and open their prospects for further development.

We believe in challenge with compassion: every student will be given the opportunity to achieve academic success in an environment that places students’ wellbeing at the heart of everything we do. Strong relationships lie at the heart of this.

Cedar Mount Academy is very proud to be part of Bright Futures Educational Trust. As a member of the Trust, we access a wide range of opportunities for staff and students and work closely with schools across the Bright Futures network, ensuring the best for everyone and the best from everyone.

We welcome visitors to the school so that this happy and dynamic community can be seen as it is. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you wish to visit. You will quickly see why Cedar Mount Academy is the place to be.
