Welcome to Outwood Academy Adwick
Outwood Academy Adwick is a successful sixth form, aligned with Outwood Grange Academies Trust. From September 2025, we will become a DfE championed Academy for T-Levels, working with industrial placements for 1 day a week. We currently offer T Level Health with purpose built, state of the art health facilities. For September 2025, we will also be offering Animal Care and Administration and Management. The T-Level courses provide a clear route from GCSE studies to high quality education and training in the academy and we are partnered with leading employers. Equivalent to three A-Levels the qualifications provide the students skills, knowledge, experience and qualifications to either continue directly into professional roles at the end of their course or continue their learning at university or higher level apprenticeships. We pride ourselves on the personal care, support and excellent academic opportunities and outcomes for all of our students. We believe in you and will offer you all of the support necessary to achieve highly. Joining as an Outwood secondary student you can be assured by the continued close pastoral and academic support that you have received in previous years, but with the independence that comes with Post-16 study. As a student joining afresh to Outwood, you will be welcomed with support and guidance to ensure we have a pathway that is right for each individual. We have a dedicated Learning Manager and Work Placement Coordinator as fantastic points of contact for you and your parents; ensuring that you have everything you need to be successful. We have an excellent, independent careers service for post 16 students to gain as much advice as possible before making decisions on next steps. We offer multifarious opportunities to explore future options and multiple chances to develop skills that will be useful in all areas of your life. We have high standards, for ourselves and for you. With high quality teaching and learning we provide support and guidance to help each individual make life-changing decisions and applications that help them in becoming the very best they can be.
