Headteacher's Welcome
On behalf of our students, staff, and governors, I would like to take the opportunity to welcome you to King Alfred's Academy. It is a privilege to do so as the Headteacher. King Alfred's is a friendly, ambitious, and vibrant school packed full of energy, opportunity, and choice. Our mission statement is "Opportunity for All," something we believe in passionately and strive to deliver to our students each and every day.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Smart
Headteacher
