A Community Where Students Thrive

At The Burgess Hill Academy, we believe that school should give every student the knowledge, experiences and opportunities they need to thrive. We want our students to leave us as confident, capable young people with excellent outcomes and a wide range of choices open to them for the future.

A fantastic performance from our Year 9 football team, who secured a superb 4-0 victory over St Paul's!

The team were outstanding from start to finish, with goals from Charlie, Zachary, Ralph and Joey. St Paul's were awarded a penalty, but Rupert produced an excellent save to keep a clean sheet!

🏆 Player of the Match: Ralph

A huge congratulations to the entire squad on a brilliant team performance. We look forward to seeing what this talented group can achieve next! ⚽️
