Junior Years is a unique time in your child’s development. This is a period of tremendous
intellectual, physical and emotional growth when young people begin to wrestle with questions in
more profound ways – questions about themselves, the world and their place in it.
New Mission Academy offers a caring and academically rich environment in which all students are
inspired to pursue their passions and excel in the modern world. Our aim is that they become
sophisticated, independent thinkers equipped and determined to realise their ambitions and
aspirations. We offer a well-rounded education to inspire our students with the love of learning and
spark intellectual curiosity that will prepare them both for the challenges they will face at school
and beyond.
Our Junior Years curriculum is designed to be broad and balanced, and to widen students’ knowledge,
understanding and experiences. It promotes academic rigour, develops intellectual curiosity and
fosters the ability to learn independently. It also ensures that academic excellence flourishes
alongside arts, music and sport. Our students pursue knowledge and conceptual understanding in a
wide variety of subjects and are encouraged at all times to make links between their learning and
the world in which they live.
