A Venn Academy Trust School

– Together we will…

Venn is a pioneering academy trust, committed to building educational environments where all pupils are inspired to become lifelong learners who achieve the very highest standards possible.

Collaborating with all partners, the Trust works with its unique settings to create world class learning experiences for all.

At Brooke Primary Academy, each year we provide a wide range of enrichment activities and clubs. We believe that the school day should not end at 3.15pm and aim to provide exciting, inclusive and engaging clubs and activities for children to take part in.

Most clubs are free of charge or priced as low as possible.

Children classified as Pupil Premium do not have to pay for clubs.

Spaces at clubs are limited. If you wish your child to attend, please contact the school office to check availability.

Parents should also be aware that we provide after school childcare through our 3-2-6 provision. This is chargeable to all parents. Please see the tab on our website for more information.
