We aim to challenge and stretch students. Progress is closely monitored, with target setting and support plans to help them fulfil their potential. We treat our students as young adults encouraging them to take ownership of their learning and behaviour. Parents are contacted regularly to provide updates on progress with meetings every term.
OPPORTUNITIES
Students who demonstrate the skills required to support and lead coaching sessions will have the opportunity to gain valuable work/coaching experience through our community programmes such as our successful Mini Ducks courses.
Our partnership with Stoke Mandeville Stadium allows students to develop their leadership and personal skills by volunteering at events such as wheel power, inclusive activities and school games.
PATHWAYS
We are pleased to work directly in partnership with Tom Nutter Soccer to provide a pathway to the USA for our students wishing to pursue a scholarship.
Founder Tom graduated from West Texas A&M University in 2009 and since then has built up a huge reputation in college soccer recruitment. Alongside Tom, there is a team of former USA scholarship graduates whio provide support to all clients at every stage of the process.
Through the university fitness lab, we have developed a partnership for successful students to enrol on to the sport courses available at Bucks New University (BNU).
BNU offer a wealth of undergraduate sports courses. Some of our former students have gone on to study
