CCF Flying Experience

Twenty cadets from Bloxwich Academy Combined Cadet Force participated in their fly experience days at RAF Cosford in September.

The day consisted of learning basic parachute drills and how to escape the plane in the event of an emergency. This was further complemented with a 30-minute flight in a Grob G 115 tutor aircraft where the cadets were allowed to take control and fly the aircraft. Some of the cadets took the opportunity to perform some aerial stunts and manoeuvres to enhance the day’s experience.

Even though there were a couple of sick bags and grey faces I think everyone who flew had a great time.

GCSE Results 2019

Could Bloxwich academy be the most improved school again nationally, twice in 3 years?

Bloxwich Academy are celebrating a fantastic set of GCSE results. The progress pupils have made is outstanding, with many pupils achieving the top grades available. Our pupils have certainly embraced the academy’s ethos of being the best you can be.

We are over the moon with the progress our pupils have made.  These results truly reflect the hard work and commitment of our pupils, parents and staff. The fantastic results now echo the excellent behaviour, superb culture and ethos we have at Bloxwich Academy. We are looking forward to working with our pupils on their return to Sixth Form in September.

Dame Mo Brennan, Chief Executive of Matrix Academy Trust, said: “These results show what determination and hard work can achieve. Bloxwich was once one of the lowest-achieving schools in the country and now it is one of the most improved. Pupils, parents and staff should all be proud of what they have achieved. “
