It has been my pleasure as Head of Year 12 to welcome a new cohort of students to Chelsea Academy Sixth Form. As a year group they have made a strong start and demonstrated themselves to be humble, resilient and flexible. In addition to starting A level study the Year 12’s have thrown themselves into the extra curricular opportunities available to them.
For the first time the Deputy Head Students will be selected from Year 12 and we have had an overwhelming number of applications of extremely high quality.
A number of Year 12 students have secured places on the NCS Autumn 2020 programme, whilst individual student highlights including gaining work experience with Access Aspiration and reaching the final of ‘Day in Your Life’ photography competition in collaboration with the Saatchi gallery. The Year 12’s positive start has left me feeling encouraged about what is to come this year.

It has been wonderful to welcome the Year 13 students back for their final year at the Academy. The students have settled back into their academics and have been busy researching and preparing their personal statements and applications for university, apprenticeships and gap years. We are well underway with the Head Student process and I was immensely proud of how the students conducted themselves during their leadership presentations to their peers and to the staff body. It has been a great start to the term and I hope that they can maintain this momentum for the remainder of the year.
