Extra-curricular
We want students to achieve their potential and flourish both academically and personally, so we encourage them to get involved and complement their academic studies by taking advantage of the many extra-curricular opportunities that are available at our academy.
Please find below our extra-curricular provision for Years 7 to 11.
This is subject to further changes and will be updated accordingly. A new timetable will be posted at the start of each half term.
Most clubs start immediately at the end of the school day and will last approximately for 45 minutes to an hour. Should you have any specific questions about any of the clubs or activities on offer please contact the staff member who has organised it; their name will be on the timetable.
