Blackpool Sixth’s ‘Excellence Academy Super lectures’ - a series of talks designed to help develop crucial college-level study and thinking skills - have now started.
These talks, to which our KS4 students are invited, are a brilliant way for them to engage with their learning outside of the classroom. They will take place at the Sixth form college usually on Mondays from 4pm, unless stated otherwise.
