Welcome to Salford Ciry AcademyPrincipal and Associate Principal Welcome

Thank you for visiting our website, we are delighted to welcome you to Salford City Academy.  

Salford City Academy is proud to be part of United Learning, a group of academies, primaries and independent schools who work by the motto ‘The Best in Everyone’, and we wholeheartedly subscribe to this philosophy. 

Salford City is a rapidly growing Academy with outstanding students and a culture of excellence that permeates our values and ethos.

Mrs Eaton has worked at the academy for 16 years and Ms Haselden joined as Principal in 2017. We know what an amazing experience it is to be part of the Salford City Academy community.  We are very proud of our school and, most importantly, of the students and staff with whom we have the pleasure of spending each day.

At Salford City Academy, we aim to provide an excellent education for all our students; one that brings out the best in all students and prepares them for future successes in life. Our curriculum aim is to create a high achievement culture, based on the acquisition of 'powerful knowledge' for which all students will emerge better equipped to pursue exciting career choices.

We are delighted with the progress our students have made. GCSE results at Salford City Academy place us consistency in the top two schools in Salford for progress. Students taking Maths and Science perform in the top 20% of secondary schools and the highest performing in the borough. It has been the hard work of staff, students and the community that has enabled us to achieve this together.

We believe that all students are capable of making outstanding progress and attaining at the highest level, whatever their starting point. We do not make excuses for our students: we firmly believe that there are no barriers to achievement that cannot be overcome by a determined and resilient student and a supportive school team. We specialise in establishing what each student needs in order to make this outstanding progress and ensure that no child is left behind.

In order to achieve the best in everyone, we have a constant focus on high standards from our students whether in uniform, behaviour, communication, manners and resilience. 

Salford City Academy is very proud to be a multicultural, multi-faith community. We celebrate the diversity of our staff and student population and each year look forward to our annual cultural day where we encourage our students to celebrate their heritage but equally to be proud British citizens.

The bedrock on which our school community is built is the excellent relationships between staff and students and between students themselves. When you visit our school you will feel the warmth and positivity. We believe that respect should always be given and that all members of the school community should act with humility and understanding at all times.

We hope that you find what you are looking for on this website. If not, please do contact us for further information. Likewise, if you are interested in attending Salford City Academy or working as part of our team, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

We look forward to welcoming you here.

With very best wishes, 

Principal Melanie Haselden and Associate Principal Katie Eaton
