BromCom Down Nationwide The BromCom service is currently down nationwide, affecting schools across the country. We are in touch with the company and are receiving updates as they work swiftly to restore the service. This will affect your option to see your child’s attendance marks on MCAS. If you have sent a message through MCAS to your child’s school, we might not be able to read this. Please contact school via phone to ensure your message gets to the right person. Schools are also unable to send MCAS messages, therefore please check your emails and phone calls for any communication from the academy. Please contact the school directly via phone or email should you have any concerns. We apologise for any inconvenience and do hope to have all systems running as normal soon.

Enrichment Opportunities

Expanding horizons beyond the classroom. Subject-specific trips that inspire, educate, and enrich

At our Sixth Form, learning goes far beyond the classroom. We offer a wide range of trips tailored to each subject, giving students the chance to experience their studies in exciting, real-world settings.

Geography students might explore the stunning landscapes of Snowdonia, history students can immerse themselves in Berlin’s rich heritage, while others enjoy ski trips or visit theatre shows to bring their subjects to life.

These experiences not only enhance academic understanding but also foster cultural awareness, personal growth, and teamwork, helping students develop new skills, broaden their horizons, and create lasting memories.

Team Building

Our team-building trips help students develop leadership, collaboration, and problem-solving skills in a fun and supportive environment. This year we took our new year 12’s to Go Ape.

“The Go Ape trip was a fun day messing around with friends, doing fun trials in the trees. We had some really funny moments in the team exercises, perfect for team bonding” 

Henry, student studying maths, economics and chemistry

University visits and talks

Throughout the year we run a variety of events that support both research and applications, including trips to both the National Apprenticeship fair and the UCAS exhibition.

  • Wadham College, University of Oxford
  • Gonville & Caius College, University of Cambridge
  • University of Lincoln
  • University of East Anglia
  • Oxford Brookes University
  • Anglia Ruskin University
