Education

Ernulf Academy is a secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located in St Neots – it was the first 11-18 specialist performing arts college in Cambridgeshire. The new Headteacher wasn’t happy with the imagery used in their prospectus and so contacted me at late notice to meet a printing deadline. The new Headteacher is my sister and so I said yes and worked cheap.

Originally known as The Sir Harry Smith Secondary School and built to accommodate 600 students, the doors first opened to an intake of 360 students in September 1953. Sir Harry Smith Community College currently has over 1,200 students on roll. The majority of students at Sir Harry Smith come from the Whittlesey and neighbouring villages.

The new Stanground Academy was officially opened on 2nd May by Lord Nash, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Schools. The Stanground Academy has been completely rebuilt following a £24 million investment by Peterborough City Council. The new Academy buildings include a state-of-the-art teaching block with fully equipped specialist rooms for science, technology, art and ICT.

Every year I am asked to take pictures at Sir Harry Smith Community College for their Sixth Form Prospectus. It’s always a delight to encounter young people who are enthusiastic about learning and who are encouraged and supported by dedicated teachers. Stuck out in the middle of the Fenland countryside might seem a disadvantage for those seeking to further their academic learning but it is to the credit of this college that the vast majority of their Sixth Form students continue their studies at university.

Sponsored by the Greenwood Dale Foundation Trust, the new City of Peterborough Academy opened in September 2013 in Peterborough. Following a £13.8m building programme the new Academy is now attracting new students to a wonderful new environment.
