About Bluecoat Trent Academy
Bluecoat Trent Academy
Pelham Avenue, Nottingham
Nottinghamshire
NG5 1AJ
United Kingdom
The Bluecoat Trent Academy (BTA) opened its doors in September 2021 with the founding cohort of Year 7 students. BTA is an 11-16, non-faith school. For the first year BTA accommodates six forms of entry, growing to eight forms in subsequent years.
The new build for the academy will be built on the former site of Clarendon College, on the edge of Forest Fields, close to Mapperley Park. Whilst the new academy is being constructed BTA will, for the first two years, be based in its own building on the site of Bluecoat Aspley Academy on Aspley Lane.
The Bluecoat Trent Academy is committed to excellence for all; no matter what the starting point each individual will be supported in reaching their academic potential and striving to meet their goals. We provide extensive opportunities for our students to explore experiences beyond the classroom and discover their individual talents, be it on a sports field, in a theatre or leading an expedition.
We place equal value on ensuring our students grow and develop pastorally and socially. We aim that our students will make life-long friendships and, as in all of Archway's family of schools, there will be a strong sense of community. Our students will feel they belong.
