I am delighted and proud to welcome you to Ark Victoria Academy, a family school in the heart of Small Heath, Birmingham. I joined our academy in 2019 and enjoy working with our pupils and staff to make sure our school continues to improve each and every term. We want to provide an excellent education for each and every one of our pupils.  

Our vision is to be the number one school of choice in our community, improving the life chances of all those within our community. To achieve our vision, we work collectively with our Parent Community Forum, our staff, governors, pupils and parents.

As Principal, it is my responsibility to create an environment in which your child can become a confident, articulate, resilient and kind young adult. Our curriculum, enrichment programme and pupil experience days help ensure our pupils learn, thrive and make progress. We are committed to preparing and supporting our pupils to go on to pursue careers they are passionate about, contributing positively to society and living happy, healthy and fulfilled lives. Our school community works hard to ensure our values of being ambitious, resilient and kind underpin our work and are upheld by everyone.  

We believe that all children can and will achieve success, and our dedicated staff nurture our children, providing support and challenge as necessary, in order to make this a reality. We welcome and value the input of carers and parents; by working together, we can realise the dreams and ambitions of our children and their families.

Please take a look around our website to explore what we can offer your child. However, the best way to really understand our school is to experience it. I would love to show you around and answer any questions you may have.

Please contact my PA, Ms Saerah Chohan (s.chohan@arkvictoria.org)  to arrange a visit.
