Academy Information
St. John Bosco Catholic Academy is a Multi Academy Company (MAC) in accordance with agreement formulated between the Archdiocese of Birmingham and the Department for Education.
The MAC was established in September 2013 and is a Charitable Trust and Company Limited by guarantee.
SJBCA grew out of a partnership with a secondary and two feeder primary schools within the Dudley Borough. The desire for these schools to work together was to support and grow the educational opportunities for the children of Dudley to access quality Catholic education from 3 to 18 years. Since then, the St. John Bosco MAC has grown to welcome additional schools.
St. Chad's is proud to be part of a bigger community in our MAC. We are a family of Catholic primary and secondary schools fulfilling our joint mission:
‘We nurture the unique God-given talents of every individual, providing a quality, distinctively Catholic education to our diverse community’
Please visit the Academy website for more information about the company, including governance and financial information.
