Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street - coming to our Theatre in July
Students from the academy and 9 other schools are joining forces to put on a spectacular show this July in Co-op Academy Manchester's theatre.

How to help your child with homework
Students should complete homework to revise and go beyond what they learn in class.
Our simple approach asks students to follow the 10:10:10 pattern each day - 10 minutes of Sparx Reader, 10 minutes of Sparx Maths and 10 minutes revising from their Knowledge Expert Sheets.
