Venue Hire

The Academy works in partnership with the local community to promote a wide range of activities, events and learning opportunities for young people and adults. It aims to develop and strengthen relationships with community organisations through the hire of the Academy’s extensive facilities.

The Academy has a wide variety of spaces ranging from an award-winning atrium to classrooms, new state-of-the-art science labs and an auditorium seating 180 people.

Charges are competitive with a substantial discount for community, charity and voluntary organisations. We hope to be able to resume venue hire soon - please check back for details on how to hire our facilities for community and corporate events.
