Online Prospectus

Dear Parent

Welcome to Torry Academy.

We have put together this online version of the school prospectus, to give you and your family a flavour of the work which goes on in the school and to try and answer any questions that you may have.

The staff and I are pleased to welcome new pupils to Torry Academy. Whether they come from a Primary School or another Secondary we hope that they will settle down well and enjoy their time at Torry.

We want to work in partnership with you to provide your children with an education which equips them for the years ahead in work, life and play and which meets their needs as individuals. We also work in partnership with many support agencies, local industry and the wider community to give pupils an all round education.

We want to offer them the highest possible standard of education in a safe and caring and interesting environment and we encourage them to maximise their own potential in everything they do. We aim to foster their academic, physical, and social development through a well balanced curriculum designed to help them gain a wide range of skills.

As a parent you are encouraged to contact Guidance Staff, myself or other members of the Senior Staff if there are any matters you wish to discuss. We want to work together to form a partnership for the maximum benefit of our pupils.

I hope this online document will become a useful guide for you in the coming years and I look forward to meeting you during the time of your child's education.

Yours sincerely
J P Cranna
