City Academy Whitehawk

I am delighted City Academy Whitehawk has become the first Primary Academy in Brighton and Hove. We are also the first school to be sponsored by City College Brighton & Hove. City College was rated as outstanding by Ofsted inspectors in Leadership and Management, creating a culture of high expectations.

This school is larger than the average-sized primary school. Children join the early years provision in the Reception class, where all the children attend full time. The proportions of pupils who are from minority ethnic backgrounds and of those who speak English as an additional language are well below national averages. The proportion of the school’s pupils who are supported by the pupil premium is much higher than the national average.
