National Church OF England Academy

As we start the New Year, now is an ideal time to give you a short update on how our building work is going. Other than one day for snow, work has continued on-site and is on schedule. You would be forgiven for thinking that from a distance it looks like not a lot has happened. However, in reality the preparation for the main build could not be going better and is clearly vital before the main build. The foundations were dug out and set before Christmas and now the drainage for waste and rain and channels for electricity, water and communication cables are taking shape. At the end of this month the steel framing arrives. At that point you will start to see progress above ground. Here are a few images to show what has being happening. You might see the outline of a large building from the concrete foundations. Once the frame goes up it will all become very clear.

The National Church of England Academy is thrilled to share that construction of our brand new Sixth Form Centre is off to a fantastic start. This state-of-the-art facility is on track to open in September 2025 and represents a multi-million-pound investment in the future of post-16 education at the academy.

Stay tuned for more updates as the project progresses!
