Arena Academy
Arena Academy is committed to helping its community. As part of a new initiative, Arena families can collect free food, drink and essential items, every Friday. We are thankful for the generous support we receive from our local communities, whether that be from businesses or individuals.
Last week, Arena Academy was proud and honoured to have been awarded the ‘Teach Well School Gold Award’ for taking care of the physical and mental wellbeing of staff during the Covid-19 outbreak.
On Wednesday, Science and PE teacher Mr Jones shared his diary of life in lockdown with Birmingham Live. See the online article here.
