Event description

Inspire our students

Our Academy serves a deprived area of Sandwell. We encourage and promote aspiration in our students through a unique thematic curriculum. We need your help to bridge the gap between academic success and the opportunities our students can look forward to in the world of work.

Many of our students dismiss the possibility of high profile careers and simply don't encounter the multitude of careers that enable people to make a difference in the community, country or world.

During this event we hope to open the eyes of a group of gifted, but underperforming students to the potential they have to make a difference.
