Welcome to
St Michael's C of E Academy is a new free school situated in the heart of Paignton. We are a church school, and our vision, “The Future We Create Every Day’ underpins the curriculum that we provide for our wonderful pupils. We are strengthened and supported by being part of a wider community, the Learning Academy Partnership. As a Multi Academy Trust, we are a family of exceptional academies across Torbay, Devon and Cornwall who work together for the good of all our children and communities.
We believe in providing the children with a rich, vibrant curriculum which enables them to gain knowledge, develop skills but also develop as a learner, preparing them for the next step on their journey. We are a happy school, we care about each other, and we are proud of how we work together and as part of a wider Paignton community.
If you are considering joining our school family, please contact the office who will be able to make an appointment to see our school and meet the team.
Julie Edwards
Head of Academy
