The Folkestone Academy is sponsored by Roger De Haan, and by Kings School Canterbury, one of the country’s leading independent schools. It is also strongly supported by Kent County Council whose strategy to transform education in the region has led to its active involvement in the Academies programme. Kent University and Canterbury Christ Church University are represented on the Board of Trustees.
The Academy specialises in Art, Media and European Culture and has been identified by Kent County Council as its Centre of Excellence in Media and the Creative Arts.
