We are delighted to launch our themed menus for 2023/24 off the back of our very successful new menu for the academic year. 

These special days are an opportunity to celebrate events, festivals and cultures from around the world across all of the Matrix Academy Trust schools. Not only will these provide pupils with a wide range of food experiences but will also compliment our Personal Development curriculum and Theme of the Week.

Watch this space for more updates on our menus and the wonderful food that we will be offering as part of these events.

We are incredibly proud of the attitudes and focus year 11 are giving in their morning revision workshops over recent weeks with Mr Evers and Mr Booth. 

Pupils have been learning about the importance of planning, revision timetables and spaced learning. How to utilise Seneca and revision cards, concept maps and dual coding for memory, as well as Cornell notes and deliberate practice. Count down to mock exams is on.

Excellent Attendance Reaps Rewards

Well done to the vast majority of pupils who have attended school every day this year so far; Year 7 are certainly leading the way and Year 11 are a close second (especially important with the forthcoming examinations on the horizon).

After talking with a number of pupils over the last few weeks, we are about to launch a new package of rewards for great attendance, alongside also rewarding pupils with improved attendance – watch this space!

We know that pupils fall behind their friends and classmates when they miss school. At Bloxwich Academy, we want the amount of missed education to be reduced as much as possible. We believe that our community is stronger together, with all of our pupils in school, on time, every day. We are building life skills, life-long friendships and preparing your child for future success.

Please email attendance@bloxwichacademy.co.uk if there is anything we can do to support you or your child.

Today Bloxwich Academy pupils raised money for Macmillan by holding a cake stall at break time. They provide services for people living with cancer at every stage of their cancer experience. Macmillan is 98% funded by voluntary donations, so fundraising is essential to make sure they can deliver the vital support people living with cancer need. The pupils wanted to support this charity and follow our Bloxwich values in this Academy

Congratulations to Toby, Ruby, Evie, Jessica and Kali for their ‘Young Writer’ award commended in the Young Writer’s national competition, their work is to be published in a creative writing book.  Creative writing extracurricular club has supported pupils to craft and structure their own plots with flare, around the theme of unsolved mystery.
