Performance Opportunities

The Academy offers a wide range of performance opportunities within the Co-Curriculum, including the annual school production, Christmas Concert, Vocal evenings & Performing Arts evenings.


However, in the Arts, we strive to develop our students outside of the Academy, and allow for performance opportunities with professional groups. We have a number of links with Salford University, Pendleton College
