Sharing highlights from our high-performing, innovative and creative English department at Alcester Academy.
We love that our English teachers are always developing their subject knowledge! @AlcesterAcademy @AlcesAcad_TandL
A brilliant night at the theatre watching An Inspector Calls! 🎭 I thought it was brilliantly done and wasn’t expecting students in the audience to start clapping when the Inspector said “I don’t play golf”😂 A great night!✨
Well done Year 7 for such a brilliant accomplishment - we are so proud of you!!
