Tutor Time

Tutor Time

All students in the Academy have tutor time between 8.45am and 9.15am. There is a rolling carousel of activities that include Tutor Time Announcements, Form Time Reading, Current Affairs, PSHE and a year group assembly. Our assemblies each week usually centre around a ‘Big Question’ allowing students to learn and reflect on big issues and current affairs.

Examples of ‘Big Questions’ that will form the basis of our weekly themes include:

  • What’s the point in learning another language?
  • Who are Birmingham’s black heroes?
  • How do you win friends & influence people?
  • Is modern art rubbish?
  • Should we aim to conquer all fear?

The form time programme for 2024 – 2025 is shown below:
