Extended Opportunities
There are many clubs and out of lesson activities in the Academy which are popular amongst pupils and enjoyed by staff. These include sporting activities such as football, gymnastics, netball, cross-country running, hockey, table tennis, basketball and cricket.
A wide range of resources are available for pupils to access data. Homework clubs are also available. Our ICT rooms are available at lunchtime and after school for supervised pupil use.
For those pupils keen on practical activities the Art club proves popular and the Drama club is very active. There is an Academy Choir and other activities are on offer connected with the development of musical skills.
Many activities take place during the course of the year involving visits to concerts and theatres in support of English, Drama and Music and other outdoor education and overseas visits in support of History, Geography and Modern Foreign Languages.
We also run a large Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme for pupils in year 9 upwards.
