Brompton Academy Additional Information

HOW IS THE ACADEMY ORGANISED? The Academy is organised by year group, building a sense of identity and belonging. Students collaborate within year groups for assemblies, awards, competitions, charity projects and so much more. HOW ARE STUDENTS ORGANISED FOR LEARNING? Students are organised into two bands within each year group, known as

J band and R band. These bands are the same with no difference in curriculum, ability or outcomes. Within each band, students are in ability based sets for core subjects and mixed ability groups for foundation subjects. There are no barriers to success, students can progress up sets within subjects based on their academic achievement and attainment. All students follow a core curriculum consisting of English, Maths and Sciencethroughout their time at the Academy and these subjects are set by ability.

Students are actively encouraged to study for a range of qualifications leading to various GCSEs, BTECs and Advanced level programmes including the English Baccalaureate. The UKAT Sixth Form is the natural step for many of our students who are focused on achieving future successful careers and incorporates a broad range of qualifications, in both A level and BTEC options.
