Over the last 12 months the School has seen impressive improvements to its range of facilities across academic, sport and recreational spaces. The stunning Yang Science Centre has transformed the science facilities and made way for the old science block to become Greening Court and a much improved ‘home’ for Classics, Geography and History. A new multi use sports area, MUSA, has been added to the main campus and extensive improvements to the facilities at Tilsley Park include a new 4G pitch and throws area plus a refurbished cafe. Greening Court Beech Court development Amey Theatre Looking forward, we are very excited about our new Sixth Form Centre, the Centre for Independent Learning and the new facilities for the Art department that were announced last term with the plans for Beech Court. We hope to open this new development in 2018. In addition to major projects, there have been many smaller improvements such as the refurbishment of Boarders’ Hall, Avernus and to bedrooms and kitchens in the boarding houses. The Amey Theatre had new seating and air handling installed in 2015 followed by lighting and audio visual equipment. Over the summer equipment was installed to enable the theatre to be used as a cinema to screen, for example, National Theatre productions. 11
