“Our aim is to inspire young people to develop their skills, talents and character through a wide range of activities, to use their curiosity and creativity to find new ways of achieving their potential and to have the confidence, drive and resilience to follow their dreams.” ‘Opportunity; Belief and Aspiration’ at OBA is the core of our academy life, extending beyond our academic curriculum through learning beyond the classroom. Our enrichment activities are fundamental in supporting our students to become confident, successful and aspirational young people, ready for modern day Britain. Enrichment underpins the spiritual, moral, social and cultural, and personal character development of each and every one of our students. Student life is enriched by a range of opportunities: students are encouraged to explore new experiences; develop personal insight through academic challenge and cultural visits, and find new talents and interests through a variety of extracurricular clubs.
