Welcome
About Us
Welcome to The Belvedere Academy
Belvedere has been part of Liverpool’s educational landscape for nearly 150 years, initially as an independent fee paying school and since 2007 as an Academy.
During that time it has built a well-deserved reputation for excellence in the education of young women.
Nearly 20 years ago, in 2007, it transferred to academy status becoming The Belvedere Academy, a state funded 11 to 19 school which admits girls of all abilities from across Liverpool.
In so doing, the school grew in size and in the range of academic and extra-curricular opportunities it offers its students. However, what has remained the same is the essential ethos of the academy as a place where students engage positively with learning, are enabled to be ambitious and to strive for excellence in all areas whilst developing into enthusiastic and skilled young citizens of the modern world.
Belvedere has always encouraged individuality. We understand that one size does not always fit all and prioritise getting to know our pupils and staff and ensuring that they find their place within our community. Staff and pupils bring so many varied lived experiences to Belvedere and our strength is in ensuring everyone feels that they matter and belong.
Our students are supported through their educational journey and beyond; encouraged to always do their best and equipped with the skills and self-confidence required to manage life’s challenges as well as to celebrate their own successes.
Belvedere’s unique membership of the Girls’ Day School Trust ensures that students and staff benefit from operating within a nationwide family of schools committed to the education of young people and to preparing them to have positive and meaningful adult lives in the ever-changing modern world. Collaboration between our schools broadens our students’ knowledge and experiences.
It is my privilege to lead The Belvedere Academy as it continues to grow. Students who attend this school can be assured that they will quickly feel part of a supportive community; in addition they will be stretched both in their academic work and in their extra-curricular experiences. Ultimately, they will develop into skilled young people ready to “Be Brave and Be Bold” as they face the challenges of the twenty-first century.
