About our school:

Ark Elvin Academy is a large non-selective secondary school in the London borough of Brent. We are proud of the excellent education we offer each of our pupils. Our team of enthusiastic and ambitious staff have high expectations of themselves and our pupils and have worked together to transform our school. We are now just as excited about the next step in our school improvement journey as we work together to deliver the outstanding education our community need and deserve.

At Ark Elvin, we understand that being a teacher is tough and are committed to working together to help reduce workload where possible. This includes clarity around roles and responsibilities allowing you to plan daily, weekly and termly tasks, reducing ineffective or inefficient work such as report writing and parents' evenings and above all, listening to and acting on feedback. We are also committed to ensuring teachers can focus on teaching and have the opportunity to refine and develop their practice in the classroom and develop their leadership skills.

In our last OFSTED inspection (October 2019) it was recognised that:

"Pupils, parents and staff all agree that Ark Elvin Academy has improved out of all recognition. Pupils are proud of the school."

"The headteacher and leaders have very high expectations...... Staff want all pupils to succeed in every area of their lives, not just academically."

"The school is a calm, safe and supportive place for pupils. Pupils behave very well in lessons. They get on well with one another and with adults."
