Strategic Partnership with Billericay Town FC: Vocational Courses and Football Academy Opportunities
"The Football Academy provides young footballers with the best education, training, football networks and sporting facilities to help them realise their full potential."
In May 2024 the College signed a Strategic Partnership with Billericay Town Football Club to deliver vocational courses at their professional training ground and club in Billericay.
The partnership will mean that eligible students who are part of the Football Academy AND studying the NCFE Level 3 Certificate in Sport and Physical Activity will be taught their whole programme at the club and have instant access to the professional training facilities and competition pitch.
The partnership will also see opportunities for students from other curriculum areas involved in work placements and live briefs to support the work of the club, including:
- Protecting from maltreatment
- Preventing impairment of health or development
- Growing up in a safe and cared for environment
- Taking action to enable the best outcomes
