St Francis of Assisi Academy, Liverpool
- sustainability delivering value
“The excellent GCSE results
and the fact that our students
finished top of the national
league tables for progress can
rightly be attributed to the
impact the building had on
their studies”
Green values help academy top new league table
“A school which offers its pupils a green-focused education has won
plaudits for having the best teaching standards in the country….”
