A message for our Year 7 parents and carers:

Year 7 Meet the Tutor Evening.

This event provides an opportunity for you to meet your child's form tutor, who will be supporting them throughout the academic year. It is also a chance to find out how your child has settled into Year 7, learn more about life at The Portsmouth Academy, and ask any questions you may have about the year ahead.

  • Session 1: 3:30pm to 4:15pm
  • Session 2: 4:15pm to 5:00pm

Allergy Awareness:

To help keep all pupils safe, please ensure the school has up-to-date information about any allergies your child may have. Accurate allergy information enables us to put appropriate support plans in place, train staff effectively, and respond quickly in an emergency. We all have a part to play in creating a safe environment, including following our nut-aware policy and being mindful of the food brought into school. If your child has an allergy, please contact the school or update their details via Arbor. Be Allergy Aware Posters for AAW25

City MP visits school to explore the benefits of new tuition in key subjects

March 15, 2024 02:18pm

This week, students at The Portsmouth Academy welcomed their local MP to learn about the positive effects new tuition in key subjects is having on learning.

Stephen Morgan MP visited the school to see how extra tuition for Maths and Science - funded by the Department for Education National Tutoring Programme - is being put to use. We will soon be offering tuition for English. 

The Department for Education (DfE) launched NTP in academic year 2020 to 2021 to support schools and local authorities to provide tuition for their pupils.

The programme is well-established, with the majority of state-funded schools in England now offering tutoring.
