Virtual Tour of our Academy
Watch our film below to discover some of the important places in our academy and get to know a little bit about what kind of things go on. Oh and keep one eye open for a VIP round these parts – Ossy, our academy mascot, who clearly likes being the centre of attention, popping up in every room!
‘Talking Heads’
To complement our virtual tour, we‘ve produced a series of ‘talking heads’ clips, to introduce our new intake to key staff and subjects, which you can find here.
We hope that by familiarising you with our staff, subjects and academy, it will help with any feelings of unease you may experience before September.
