Exploring art as therapy is a new step being taken at our academy with the first participating students already getting creative.

This World Mental Health Day, 10th October 2023, ITV’s Britain Get Talking and YoungMinds’ #HelloYellow are collaborating to help children across the country open up. Together with teachers and a clinical psychologist, we’ve created a piece of homework like no other. A conversation starter for children to take home, designed to help them talk about the hardest subjects on their minds with their parents or trusted adults. Because sharing worries can help ease stress and reduce anxiety.

Spending Christmas in a cramped rowing boat crossing the Atlantic with not much sleep might not sound like fun - but it did sound inspirational to a group of our students.

The group of students we pictured on GCSE results day are all heading in a different direction, but have all reaped the rewards of working towards their ambitions which range from a lawyer to a Para.

Miles Clark is already working towards his future by buying and selling used cars which he works on in his spare time.

There were celebrations at our academy when students arrived to collect their GCSE results this morning.
