Welcome
RSA Academies was founded by the RSA, the royal society of arts, manufactures and commence, to sponsor schools.
We sponsor individual schools and a multi-academy trust, for pupils aged 3-19, to provide an inspirational and creative education of distinct character. Our schools are all in the West Midlands. Along with a strong commitment to high academic standards, RSA Academies works with schools to prioritise and promote the arts, culture and creativity; connect children to, and prepare them for, the world beyond school; focus on social and emotional wellbeing; and encourage teachers’ creativity.
Our schools also work together as the RSA Academies’ Teaching School Alliance.
Our founder, the RSA, is committed to a future that works for everyone. A future where we can all participate in its creation. The RSA has been at the forefront of significant social impact for over 260 years. The RSA’s proven change process, rigorous research, innovative ideas platforms and diverse global community of over 30,000 problem-solvers deliver solutions for lasting change.
