Welcome to Belfairs Academy
Welcome to Belfairs Post 16. I am thoroughly proud to be heading up Post 16 and am convinced that it will be a great year for the students and the Academy. We offer a range of Level 3 academic and vocational subjects for sixth form study which meet the needs and ambitions of our students. These are listed and given detail in our prospectus and course guide which can be found in Applications and Information, where you will also find out important information about our offer for September entry.
