The geometry of the building is composed of back-to-back crescents with the main teaching wall facing out across the school fields and the Blackdale plantation. The Academy is constructed with a central steel spine and cross-laminated timber external walls, floor and roof panels. The external walls are clad with facing brickwork and the internal walls are predominantly dry lined. The new accommodation features a new sports hall, Faraday science, art and design technology workshops, along with a full complement of traditional teaching spaces.

The external areas will be completely remodelled following demolition of the old school buildings during the phase 2 works. This will make way for new sports pitches, extensive planting, new access routes for staff, students an
