The school has oustanding teaching and is the perfect establishment to host our elite academy programme.

The programme will offer high quality technical & tactical sessions, indiviudal player programmes, 1 to 1 player reviews using clips, competitive calendar of fixtures in multiple competitions & provide a football education with potential exit routes.

Each player that joins the academy will be asked to purchase the Nike academy training kit. Every player that joins the academy will be expected to portray our academy values which encourage commitment, positivity, professionalism & suporting others.
