The Academy will become the heart of Romney Marsh, a hub
for students, parents, business and community groups to share
facilities and learning that will enhance the whole community.
Stronger links with primary and secondary schools will be
established in order to ensure a smoother transition for Year 6
students moving to the Academy. There will be more joint learning
and resource sharing to benefit students across the local area.
Facilities and opportunities will also be made available to
lifelong learners from across the community.
The Academy will provide students with greater access to
facilities outside standard school hours by introducing breakfast,
homework and leisure clubs (e.g. sports / drama) during term time.
The premises will also be made available over the weekend and
during holiday periods for leisure and study activities that will
provide students with a safe and productive place to spend their
time.
The Academy will create links with local groups from whom
students can learn through traditional classes, project based work
and more in depth job and voluntary experiences. The current site
will be extended to include more facilities which local businesses
can operate from, so that students have the opportunity to gain
first hand experience of working in different sectors, discover
which they may be interested in, and find out about new
ones. |
