Post 16 Open Evening 27 October 2022

28th September 2022Adam Hodges

Come and visit us to see what our school, our culture, and our value systems are all about. Our students leave Bosworth Academy confident that they can be future leaders, ready to adapt to an ever-changing world and transition into job sectors that don’t even exist yet!

Prepare for the future by exploring the Post 16 options available at Bosworth Academy by visiting us on 27 October 2022 5:00pm – 7:30pm and see how we inspire our students to be better than they ever thought they could be by helping them believe they can make a difference to the world in which they live in.

We are located in Desford, Leicestershire, conveniently situated between Leicester city centre and the town of Hinckley in the west of the county.

Our students continue to outperform with A Level exam results being consistently above the Leicestershire average with A*-E grades at 99.8% and almost a third of Year 13 students achieving A*/A (2021/2022).

Post 16 students are able to think critically in a dedicated study area and they develop their learning in a full range of facilities including the world-class full sized football 3G pitch, design workshops and IT suites to name just a few.

We believe that developing character and values is as important as exam results and Post 16 students “learn to be good citizens and play an active role in their school, in society and in the world” (Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ Report, June 2022).

We will be showcasing each department with curriculum specialists bringing subjects to life whilst current Post 16 students will give valuable insights with testimonials.

The open evening is available to anyone who is considering their options for Post 16 study including those not currently in Year 11.

During the evening feel free to tour the school. We recommend spending at least one hour at the school to get the most out of your visit.

Our story, our vision and our values will be shared in a presentation that will illustrate student life at Post 16 Bosworth Academy.

BOTH PRESENTATIONS ARE NOW FULLY BOOKED BUT YOU CAN STILL COME AND VISIT US WHERE STAFF AND STUDENTS WILL BE HAPPY TO SHOW YOU ROUND THE ACADEMY.

You can preview the great choices we have on offer by viewing our prospectus here, by exploring the Post 16 section of our website or by viewing our video below.

A summary of the event can be found, in the form of a flyer, here.

We look forward to welcoming you!

 

Bosworth Academy is proud to be part of the LiFE Multi Academy Trust.

Year 12 Information Evening | Monday 12th September 2022 5pm-6pm

6th September 2022Miss K Henshaw

We would like to invite you to attend an information evening for parents/guardians of students studying Level 3 courses at Bosworth Academy on Monday, 12 September 2022, from 5.00 pm – 6.00 pm. Students are welcome to attend with their parents/carers.

The transition from GCSE to A level is a steep learning curve and parents/carers play a huge role in maximising the achievement of their children.

During the evening information will be shared on the target setting process, as well as expectations at Post 16. This will then be followed by a question and answer session.
