A new 2-storey building is under construction and is due to open in September 2008. It will add substantially to our existing Sixth Form accommodation and is designed to provide flexible learning spaces for the 21st Century.
It will include a conference room, recording studio and exhibition space. State-of-the-art ICT facilities, including video conferencing, will facilitate e-learning. The Centre gives a physical expression to our vision of preparing tomorrow’s leaders through an emphasis on leadership, enterprise and global learning. The Centre will also be available to the local community and a programme of links with businesses is being made.
Specialist courses and an enriched curriculum will be available.
“I am delighted to see that Heathfield School has set out its agenda to equip our future generations with the skills, attitudes and ethos they will require if they are to succeed in an evolving world economy…If our young people are to compete in this 24/7 global village and to meet these future challenges head on they need to have a strong traditional education plus a wider range of skills that include new languages, business skills and creativity.”
