King's Leadership Phoenix Academy is now open and ready for an exciting venture

King's Leadership Phoenix Academy, an innovative and dynamic alternative provision school in the heart of Wavertree, Liverpool, is now open. And leading this exciting venture is newly appointed principal, Daniel Cross.

Part of the Great Schools Trust, King's Leadership Phoenix Academy aims to be a beacon of hope for students facing diverse challenges by providing a nurturing and supportive learning environment. Its bedrock is that every young person has the potential to succeed, and its mission to unlock that potential through personalised education, mentorship, and a holistic approach to development.

Mr Cross, an experienced educational leader - who developed his career within the Great Schools Trust at King’s Leadership Academy Liverpool, Dingle - has a passion for making a positive impact in the lives of students.

He said: "We are thrilled to introduce King's Leadership Phoenix Academy to Liverpool. Our goal is to create a positive and supportive learning environment for all of our students, where they can develop academically, socially, and emotionally.
