Welcome to Bosworth Academy

For students over 16 years old we offer a wide range of courses. Over half of our Year 11 students usually choose to stay on for one or two years at Sixth Form and many students join us from other schools. We help students to choose the course and subjects best suited to their interests, strengths and future plans.At Sixth Form students enjoy a more mature working environment in the Oaks Sixth Form Centre, with their own social room and study area. Class size depends on numbers who have opted for any particular course. Each student will have had to meet the entry requirements for the chosen subjects.Our core curriculum for Sixth Form students provides advice and information on the organisation of time, acquiring good study habits and entry into university, jobs and apprenticeships.
