Welcome to our website. We aim for all scholars to leave Ark All Saints Academy equipped with the skills necessary for success at university or to pursue a career of their choice. There are no excuses; we wish nothing less for our scholars than we would for our own children.
At Ark All Saints Academy we believe that the parents are the experts in their child’s life and we want to work with them in order for our children to be successful.
Our academy has been offering excellent opportunities for local children since opening in September 2013, when we welcomed our first cohort of scholars. We then moved into our wonderful new building in January 2014.
Our values and ethos are based in Christian principles and whilst we welcome people of all faith and none, we expect all scholars to respect each other's faith.
We aim high – we will relentlessly pursue academic excellence for all children. Our teaching and academic intervention groups are named after leading universities as a reminder to all of our aims. We want to ensure that all scholars have mastery over key skills in literacy and numeracy to ensure their success in higher years.
Whilst we want our scholars to develop a love of learning, we also want to provide opportunities for them to grow their talents and interests outside of the curriculum. Have a look at our enrichment timetable to see what is on offer this year.
If you would like to get involved in Ark All Saints Academy or if you require any further information, please do not hesitate to get in contact.
We will achieve our potential with support from our faith, support from our families, support from our staff, support from our scholars and with support from you.

I am the Principal at Ark All Saints Academy. I was a Vice Principal at Walworth Academy (another Ark school) for a number of years before leaving to become the founding Principal of Ark All Saints Academy.
Welcome from our governors
Ark All Saints Academy (AASA) sits in the Camberwell community and over the past few years has become a school that the local community is proud of! Why? Because it believes in the young people within the local area and plays a significant part in equipping them for the journey of life.
For those who have entered the AASA building, you will know that one of the first things to impact you is the words, ‘I have come to give them life in all its fullness.’ Taken from one of the many sayings of Jesus, ‘life in all its fullness’ is perhaps the best way to describe AASA; the school strives to equip every single scholar not only to do well in their subjects, but also prepares them for life beyond school, whether university or something different.
To make this a reality we will ensure that our scholars build high level literacy, mathematical, scientific, linguistic and wider creative skills and develop a love of learning and knowledge of the wider world. They will have the ability to study independently and to be self-disciplined.
This first class education is being delivered by an outstanding group of teachers and staff, led by Lucy Frame, an excellent principal who has vast experience creating successful schools in the local borough.
