Brompton Academy Additional Information

HOW IS THE ACADEMY ORGANISED? The Academy is divided into five Mini Schools and students belong to one of these. On entry to the Academy, students enter one of the five Mini Schools, Darwin, Turing, Rutherford, Woolf or Keynes where they remain for five years. Each Mini School has a sense of identity and belonging; this allows students to collaborate in Mini School assemblies, competitions, charity projects and so much more.

HOW ARE STUDENTS ORGANISED FOR LEARNING? Students are organised in a variety of ways across the Mini Schools and all students can access programmes in any Mini School regardless of which Mini School they belong to. Students are actively encouraged to study for a range of qualifications leading to various GCSEs, BTECs and Advanced Level programmes including the English Baccalaureate.

All students follow a core curriculum consisting of English, Maths and Science throughout 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 focussed on achieving future successful careers and incorporates a broad range of qualifications, in both A level and BTEC options.
