Star Radcliffe Academy is a new and ambitious secondary school at the heart of Radcliffe.

Each year we will grow, welcoming a new intake of Year 7 pupils, and by September 2028 we will be at full capacity, serving every year group. Our academy exists to provide Radcliffe with a truly outstanding school that raises aspirations, strengthens community pride, and transforms the life chances of every young person we serve.
As a free school built from the ground up, we have the rare privilege of creating our culture, curriculum, and systems with clarity and purpose, shaping excellence one year group at a time. Like all Star schools, we have a distinctive leadership specialism. This means we deliver a rigorous, knowledge-rich academic curriculum alongside a character-forming leadership programme. Pupils are not only equipped with the qualifications and skills they need to succeed but are also inspired to serve others, contribute positively to society, and become leaders in their communities and beyond.
Our belief is simple but profound: every child in Radcliffe has the capacity to succeed at the highest level. By combining high expectations, exceptional teaching, and a culture built on Service, Teamwork, Ambition and Respect, we are determined to ensure that our pupils leave us as confident, compassionate, and capable young leaders ready to make their mark on the world.
